WHO WE ARE
Urban Moshav is a unique nonprofit entity with a single offering: We initiate and manage the creation of Jewish cohousing communities. We guide these neighborhoods from vision to reality, managing and guiding every step of the development process.
WHY WE DO IT
Our goal is to revive Jewish engagement in daily life within a modern context, where Jewish identity isn't reserved for holidays or synagogue but is woven into the rhythm of everyday living. These are neighborhoods where people share meals, celebrate holidays together, and genuinely know and care for one another. Think of it as a modern shtetl: a close-knit Jewish village built for the way we live today.
Building a cohousing community from the ground up is a highly complex process, and without the right guidance, it's one that often stalls or fails entirely. From costly missteps to project-ending decisions, the path is full of pitfalls that can derail even the most passionate groups. That's where Urban Moshav comes in. Our team of experienced cohousing consultants has been through it before, and we provide the professional support needed to help communities navigate the process and make well-informed decisions right from the start.
