Teen Travel:
Led by Rabbi Paley, our high school travel program (grades 9–12) takes teens across the country—from the halls of Capitol Hill to the historic streets of the Lower East Side, from Los Angeles to the Deep South—exploring the richness of Jewish life in America. Together, we strengthen our community, uncover stories of resilience and change, and empower each teen to craft their own unique Jewish journey.
We are grateful to our Temple Shalom Brotherhood for their financial support of this special program.
