B-Mitzvah for All
A B-Mitzvah experience for a young person with a disability is not less than any other; it will, however, require more thought, intention, and effort to create an experience that is meaningful and fulfilling.
We present the following steps you can follow as you imagine what is possible for every B-Mitzvah young person. Please keep in mind that these are guidelines — each community, each family, and each young person will have different needs, goals, and abilities.
- Lifecycle
- Disability and Belonging
- Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI)
- Congregational Learning
- Family Engagement
- Teen Engagement
