Our peer support WhatsApp groups are buzzing hives of discussion for our Pathfinders to confidentially explore ideas, current affairs and questions they would otherwise feel unsafe to discuss in public. This What’sApp group is specifically for people who are questioning, transitioning away from, or have already left their Orthodox or ultra-Orthodox Jewish community.
Contact us to join the group: info@pathwaysmelbourne.org

A safe, confidential group. Anonymity paramount.

– Pathways respects all expressions of Jewish identity.

OUR PATHWAYS MELBOURNE ‘VALUES’. We each bring our own background to Meet Ups, but we agree to the following common values:

​1. We honour all paths to self-determination.
2. Everyone has a right to feel safe — physically, emotionally, and psychologically.
3. Pathfinders may have mixed feelings about participation; their pace and choices matter.
4. We respect confidentiality and control over our stories.
5. Your story is yours — only you decide how, when, and if to share.
6. We won’t share anyone’s identity outside this group.
7. We are the experts of our own lives.
8. Everyone communicates uniquely; be patient and respectful.
9. Disagree kindly and consider how our words are received.
10. We will remain non-judgmental, respectful, and kind, valuing our differences.
