Intermarriage has been a reality within the Jewish community now for some time. This panel considers to what extent intermarriage impacts the long term viability of the Jewish community, and whether intermarriage is simply the product of living in a pluralistic and open society that the community needs to acknowledge. This panel will also explore to what extent intermarried couples remain Jewishly committed and will raise their children as Jews, and consider whether community attitudes alienate such couples and families from their Jewish identity.
