Jewish Education & Continuity
Am Yisrael Echad, recognized by the Ministry of Education, was established to bridge the gap between the secular and the religious Israeli, and to help secular children connect to their Jewish roots and understand their heritage. Our Jewish education programs include seminars on: Jewish holidays, Jewish values and Jewish continuity; introduction to Bar/Bat Mitzvah; and informal meetings between secular and religious teenagers.
This past school year 2009-2010:
20,000 students participated in Jewish identity programs
6,000 students toured Jerusalem
2,000 at risk youth enjoyed weekly programs about their Jewish heritage
