LGBTQ+ Aliyah

Coming Out, Coming Home!

Welcome to the LGBT Olim website

Aliyah is the term used when a Jew immigrates to Israel and becomes an Israeli citizen. It is available to anyone who identifies as Jewish with at least one Jewish grandparent, or who has converted to Judaism, regardless of sexuality or gender identity.

This website’s primary goal is to help LGBTQ+ Jews with their Aliyah journey. Whether you have already made Aliyah or you are planning to, we encourage you to make contact with us, LGBT Olim, and browse our website. We are here to provide information, advice and support pre-Aliyah; and post-Aliyah we organize social events as well as weekly Hebrew classes focusing on LGBTQ+ life.

How can we help?
