Community Pulse Project
JNPRI is partnering with the Orthodox Union (OU) and leaders in Orthodox Jewish communities around the country to create survey panels of community members. Panelists will complete regular, brief surveys on issues of communal concern, allowing leadership to understand trends and respond quickly to developing needs.

In collaboration with school administrations, JNPRI is conducting surveys of teachers to understand more about how they feel and function in their jobs. Schools will use findings from this study to address teachers’ personal and professional needs and expectations and reduce teacher turnover.
