Diller Teen Fellows Accepting Applications

Through Sunday workshops, thought-provoking weekend retreats, a three-week seminar in Israel and a 10-day peer exchange program when students will host Israeli peers from the Yerucham partner group, participants will become active, effective leaders with a strong Jewish identity and a respect for pluralism. Applications (available here) are due November 1. Contact Shoshana Brownstein at [email protected] or 305.576.4030, ext. 119.
