How can a young Israeli emissary become a living bridge between your community and Israel? In this dynamic and interactive session, we’ll explore the transformative impact of the Jewish Agency’s Shlichut program. Co-led by a Jewish educator and a current community shlicha, this workshop will highlight how authentic relationships, meaningful conversations, and creative programming can deepen connection to Israeli culture, history, and current events—especially in times of complexity. Come ready to share, learn, and walk away with adaptable ideas for your own setting.
