About

The Jewtina Institute is the research arm of Jewtina y Co., with a focused mission to deepen and expand our understanding of Latin-Jewish peoplehood. Through rigorous mixed-methods research, including both quantitative and qualitative data collection as well as secondary data analysis, the institute aims to capture the diversity, complexity, and richness of the Latin-Jewish community on a national scale. Our goal is to provide valuable insights into the evolving identities and experiences of Latin Jews and their families, ensuring that our voices are not only heard but meaningfully integrated into broader conversations that shape the future of our collective identity.
