Click here to visit the Jewish American Heritage web site
The dream for a national month to celebrate Jewish contributions to American history began as an idea by one community in South Florida. Since then, the nation has come together to pass legislation in Congress and celebrate the Proclamation of Jewish American Heritage Month (JAHM) by the President of the United States. Jewish American Heritage Month (JAHM) is a national month of recognition of the more than 350-year history of Jewish contributions to American culture, celebrated in May.  

Also visit the web site about Jewish American Heritage run jointly by The Library of Congress, The National Archives, National Endowment for the Arts, National Park Service, and the US Holocaust Memorial Museum.
