Coalition for the Advancement of Jewish Education

The Coalition for the Advancement of Jewish Education (CAJE), founded as the Coalition for Alternatives in Jewish Education, was a non-profit organization based in New York City. Its activities included an annual conference that draws more Jewish educators than any other similar event, advocacy for Jewish educators, various education-related publications, and more. Its founding was the brainchild of Jerry Benjamin and Cherie Koller-Fox.

In 2009 CAJE closed its doors. In 2010 a new organization called NewCAJE arose, led by founder Cherie Koller-Fox.

Purpose

According to its bylaws, the purpose of CAJE was to "bring together Jews of all ideologies for work, study, and sharing in discussion of issues in the field of Jewish education."

Conference

Also according to the bylaws, "[t]he conduct of educational conferences shall be a primary activity of [CAJE]."

CAJE's yearly CAJE conference drew between 1,000 and 2,000 Jewish educators from around the world.
