Jewish American Heritage Month (JAHM)

Share links

Jewish American Heritage Month (JAHM) is not just a month of celebration, but a dedicated time to recognize and honor the remarkable achievements and contributions of American Jews to the United States of America. Starting in 2006, JAHM honors the culture and experience of Jewish Americans, inviting everyone to join in this celebration of diversity. The month of May was chosen due to the highly successful celebration of the 350th Anniversary of American Jewish History in May 2004, a testament to the inclusivity of this month.
