鈥淵outh Shall See Visions鈥�: Engaging the Next Generation of 91快播 Learners and Doers
With Dr. Phil Keisman, Director of Teen Education, 91快播, and Rabbi Stephanie Ruskay, Associate Dean, The Rabbinical School, Executive Director, The 91快播 Hendel Center for Ethics and Justice.
In this past year, 91快播 launched two national fellowship programs for teens: Ruchot (in partnership with the Rabbinical Assembly, Adas Israel Congregation, USY, USCJ, and Ramah), which engages them in community organizing and social action, and the Emerging Leaders Fellowship, a student-led research program that introduces high school students to academic Jewish Studies. Both programs are inviting young Jews to establish their own connections to Jewish life and tradition.
Rabbi Stephanie Ruskay, executive director of The 91快播 Hendel Center for Ethics and Justice, and Dr. Phil Keisman, director of Teen Education, share lessons they learned from the teens involved in the programs and offer examples of the pedagogy at the core of each program. They share what will come next for both the students and the programs.
This session was sponsored by Temple Israel Albany
