Our Pillars

The Jewish Teen Learning Center is dedicated to empowering teens to embrace their identity, develop leadership skills, and make a meaningful impact on their community and the world. Through the JTLC, students will meet monthly to explore Jewish history, current events through a Jewish lens, and develop relationships with the teens in the cohort. Once students graduate the JTLC, they will start college with the tools they need to combat antisemitism, own their Judaism, and be a leader guided by strong Jewish values.
