Abstract

The paper distinguishes between the many myths concerning Israelis in America and their actual demographic and sociological realities. The author notes a subtle yet significant shift in communal policy toward their presence in America and surveys a variety of communal programs to outreach them. The author suggests that their levels of Jewish identity and religious observance are actually considerable higher than is commonly believed.
