Special Bonds Were Made During Diller Teen Fellows of Miami Mifgash Program

Special bonds were made between teens from Yerucham and Miami during the 10-day, Diller Teen Fellows of Miami Mifgash program. Yerucham teens were immersed in the local culture. Both the Israeli and American teens sharpened their leadership skills, learned about Jewish peoplehood and their Jewish identity. In July, the Miami group will visit Israel. Applications for the 2016-2017 Diller Teen Fellowship Miami cohort are now being accepted for teens entering 10th and 11th grades. Diller is operated in Miami by the Center for the Advancement of Jewish Education (CAJE), a subsidiary agency of Federation.
