By the end of the session, participants will be able to:

  • Understand the purpose of Tzelem LGBTQ+ and coming together
  • Get to know each other individually and as a group
  • Understand expectations and hopes for the year
  • Understand Jewish naming and the connection to the LGBTQ+ experience

In Moving Traditions’ Tzelem groups, nonbinary, trans, gender expansive, and LGBTQ+ teens gather monthly with a trained adult mentor using a dynamic curriculum. Together in a circle of support, participants experience a brave, sacred space for them to articulate their deepest concerns, consider the impact of gender norms on their daily lives, celebrate and support together through joys and challenges, be their authentic selves with their peers, and explore topics that matter most to them.  

All of our teen groups are safe and inclusive spaces for youth to join as they self-identify.  

We proudly partner with Keshet to offer our Tzelem groups nationally.

Moving Traditions’ curricular materials are easy to use, designed to be “plug and play,” with a flexible framework so that sessions can be delivered online or in person as needed. To learn more, visit https://www.movingtraditions.org/take-action/become-a-partner/
