Aleph Institute - North East Region

The Aleph Institute is a not-for-profit Jewish religious, educational, and humanitarian organization serving the Jewish community. We offer a multitude of services to imprisoned Jewish men and women and their families as we are focused on the premise that "no Jew is forgotten" and that "no Jew is alone."

The Aleph Institute is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) religious organization and provides relief for incarcerated Jews and their families who tend to be overlooked by traditional American Jewish organizations. Aleph's mission is a thankless one. The Institute struggles against challenging odds to reach Jewish inmates who are scattered throughout the national prison system, state hospitals, and group homes.

The programs and services of Aleph are designed to attain maximum impact not only within the prison environment, but also during the transitory period after incarceration when a sense of religious community can help former convicts rebuild their lives as productive citizens. The success of Aleph's programs attests to the power of its Torah-based approach to serving prisoners, their families, and humanity in general.
