Deadline Approaching for IsraelNow Applications

September 28 is the deadline for applications for the third cohort of IsraelNow, an immersive travel experience acquainting eighth graders with Israel. The next group will travel during Miami-Dade County’s Spring Break, March 25-April 2, 2024, with participants being Jewish-identifying eighth-grade students enrolled in public school or non-Jewish private school. Sponsored by Federation and operated by our subsidiary the Center for the Advancement of Jewish Education (CAJE), IsraelNow introduces Jewish youth to Israel’s history, culture and people through hands-on experiences geared toward strengthening Jewish identity and commitment to Jewish life.
