American Society For Jewish Music
Maintaining links to similar institutions in Jewish communities throughout the world, the American Society for Jewish Music can trace its roots as far back as 1908, to several earlier Jewish musical societies and associations, first in Europe and then in America.

Association for Jewish Studies
Founded in 1969, the Association for Jewish Studies (AJS) is a learned society and professional organization that seeks to promote, facilitate, and improve teaching and research in Jewish studies at colleges, universities, and other institutions of higher learning. With more than 1500 members, the AJS provides an intellectual forum for university faculty, graduate students, independent scholars, and museum and related professionals. Its major programs and projects include an annual scholarly conference, with more than 140 sessions on the latest Jewish studies research; a peer-reviewed scholarly journal, AJS Review, published by Cambridge University Press; a bi-annual magazine, AJS Perspectives, dedicated to current issues in Jewish studies scholarship, methodology, and teaching; Positions in Jewish Studies, the most comprehensive listing of job openings in the field; and Jewish Studies Resources, a new online initiative to provide web-based information on Jewish studies programs, grant opportunities, and research.

Centro Primo Levi
The Centro Primo Levi for Italian Jewish Studies joined the Center for Jewish History in June 2003. An offspring of the Genoa-based organization of the same name, the center is dedicated to creating a contemporary forum and an academic infrastructure for Italian-Jewish studies worldwide. The organization operates in close collaboration with the Union of the Italian Jewish Communities and the Italian Association for Jewish Studies offering seminars and lectures, and providing a web-based interface and access point for the Jewish archives and libraries in Italy.

Gomez Foundation For Mill House
The Gomez Mill House, built in Marlboro, New York, in 1714, is the oldest surviving Jewish dwelling in North America and a cornerstone of the Jewish pioneer experience in the United States. Located at the Center since December 2000, the Gomez Foundation for Mill House oversees conservation and preservation of the site and numerous programs, including an educational outreach program that brings more than 1,000 children from local elementary schools for tours and demonstrations.

Yemenite Jewish Federation Of America
The Yemenite Jewish Federation of America was founded in 1995 by the sons and daughters of Yemenite Jews who resettled in the United States. Many of the leading members today are Yemenite Jews who arrived in the United States from Israel. The Federation, through educational and cultural activities, research, and social services, promotes the appreciation of the immense contributions of Yemenite Jews to the preservation of lost Jewish literature and practices.

The Center is also proud to be a Smithsonian Institution Affiliate.
