The National Havurah Committee (NHC) is a diverse network of individuals and havurah communities dedicated to Jewish learning and renewal, community building, and tikkun olam (repairing the world). Havurah is the Hebrew word for fellowship. In a havurah, a group of friends meets regularly to share Jewish experiences. Havurot are egalitarian, welcoming all Jews and accommodating differences in backgrounds, learning, and observance. Havurot can be independent or organized within the framework of a synagogue. Typical activities include study, participatory prayer services, social action, and life-cycle rituals.  NHC holds an annual summer institute, publishes a newsletter, holds regional weekend retreats and sponsors numerous project providing resources to individuals, havurot and the wider Jewish community.
