Fellowship: Tiyuv טִיוּב Evaluator Training and Mentoring Program
The Tiyuv Fellowship: Developing Jews of Color (JOC) Evaluation Strategists
Since 2022, Tiyuv has run the Tiyuv טִיוּב Evaluator Training and Mentoring Program to develop and uplift future JOC leaders as professional evaluators. This mentoring fellowship is our commitment to strengthening Jewish communal spaces and ensuring they reflect our highest values of inclusion and equity. We are creating a network of leaders working towards collective transformation within organizations, sectors, and ecosystems.
Program Impact and Vision
We have successfully trained and graduated three national cohorts of JOC evaluators through our fellowship program, establishing a powerful pipeline of talent. Graduates leave equipped to lead change and promote equity in diverse organizational settings.
Our Tiyuv Evaluator Training and Mentoring Program equips cohorts of JOC and BIPOC leaders to become evaluation strategists who build collective power, foster solidarity, and drive systemic change.
We have partnered with national organizations dedicated to organizing, field building, and combating racism and antisemitism, delivering evaluations, training, and consultations that have transformed their approaches to measuring equity impact and strengthened their justice work.
