18Doors is a national non-profit organization that provides assistance to interfaith families.[1][2]

The predecessor to 18Doors was an online magazine founded in 1998 with a focus on helping Jewish interfaith families. In 2001, it was renamed InterfaithFamily and expanded its content to news and resources relevant to the interfaith community.[3] In February 2020, it was renamed 18Doors.[4] In addition to their online magazine, their activities have expanded to provide training and clergy to assist interfaith families in reconnecting with being Jewish and Judaism.[1][5]
