The Hebrew Technical Institute was a vocational high school in New York City set up with the goal of training Jewish immigrants in a range of hands-on skills and craft-work. Three charity organizations, the United Hebrew Charities, the Hebrew Orphan Asylum and the Hebrew Free School founded the Institute in 1884. It closed in 1939.
