Educational Alliance is a vibrant, dynamic community organization serving New Yorkers from all walks of life.

Educational Alliance, a 125-year-old New York institution, is a vibrant, dynamic organization serving New Yorkers from all walks of life. From our beginnings as a place for Jewish immigrants to learn how to acclimate to the U.S., we serve everyone regardless of the language they speak, where they come from, or socioeconomic status. To date, we have helped 4 million New Yorkers.

Driven by Jewish values and the belief that learning is a lifelong process, we strive to create programs and services that embrace innovation and build community. We have re-defined how to serve a community, offering a wide variety of engaging and educational opportunities for everyone in each stage of life.

We’re a living laboratory, piloting and investigating ways to solve problems, create a better society, and advocate for the vulnerable. We believe that everyone should have a chance to live a better a life and that arts and culture, education, health & wellness, and social services can help to lay that foundation.
