About the Nazarian Initiative

Through highlighting and celebrating Persian culture, heritage, and tradition, The Jewish Federation’s Nazarian Initiative is shaping a more inclusive and diverse future for the Los Angeles Jewish community. Whether you’re a lifelong Angeleno or a newcomer, our team will help customize your Jewish LA experience.

Curious to explore a traditional Persian Shabbat? Or perhaps you’re itching to share the beauty of Nowruz, the Persian New year, with friends who are less familiar? The Nazarian Initiative creates partnerships, connections, and spaces for diverse young Jews to learn more about Persian culture and the importance of the Persian community to the fabric of LA life.

This program is possible through a generous partnership with the Y&S Nazarian Family Foundation and The Jewish Community Foundation of Los Angeles.
