Center for LGBTQ and Gender Studies in Religion and Ministry

• Jewish Life
  • Diversity is a Strength

The Pacific School of Religion’s Center for Lesbian and Gay Studies provides welcoming space for the full diversity found in faith communities, hosting roundtables for African American, Asian Pacific Islander, Latino, and transgender students. In 2015, with W&EHF support, the Center launched its first Jewish Roundtable. Now in that program’s third year, the Center’s Jewish Roundtable is expanding with programming that will help Jewish clergy respond to the needs of LGBTQ congregants and connect with gay clergy of other faiths.
