Nearly 700 Hillel professionals will have access to the organization's new LGBTQ Resource Guide when they meet in Washington, D.C., for an annual staff conference December 17-20. The resource guide provides tools for welcoming and working with lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer Jewish students on college campuses, according to a press release. Hillel runs community centers and other organizations for Jewish collegians.

"There exists a common belief that religious groups are not open to the LGBTQ community," D'ror Chankin-Gould, editor of the resource guide and Jewish Campus Service Corps senior fellow at Columbia University and Barnard College, said in a press release. "This guide is helping Hillel break down barriers and cultivate an inclusive, welcoming home for all Jewish students." (The Advocate)
