Applications Still Accepted for Diller Teen Miami Fellowships 2022-2023

Applications are still being accepted for Diller Teen Fellowships 2022-2023, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Jewish 10th and 11th graders to become advocates for the greater good in their own communities. This immersive leadership program trains a select group of teens in community service and social action, strengthening their connection to their Jewish community and to Israel. Each year, more than 600 teens from six continents and 32 city centers participate in the 12-month Diller Fellowship program which, through experiential learning, prepares them to be proponents of change and tikkun olam, or repairing the world. Says Diller Teen Miami alum Cecilia Edelberg, “As a Diller Teen Fellow, I learned a lot of things hands-on, like the importance of listening to others, how to give and receive feedback, and how to cope with challenges and persist through frustration. I am extremely grateful for my experience as a Diller Teen Fellow, and it will stay with me for my whole life.” To apply to for a Diller Teen Miami Fellowship or for more information about the program, visit dillermiami.org.
