Congregations, JCCs, Afterschool Programs & Beyond

Today in North America, more children receive their Jewish education in part-time Jewish educational settings than anywhere else. Through leadership coaching, peer networks, professional development, and microgrants, our work helps educational leaders deliver meaningful, relevant Jewish learning that positively influences the lives of both learners and their families. Together, we’re ensuring that Jewish learning remains relevant and meaningful in the 21st century.
