We’re excited to announce that Community Midrasha and the Levin JCC will be partnering to bring SALT (Social Action Leadership Training) to life! Thanks to your brainstorming and advice last spring, we’ve been able to put together a program that incorporates hands-on community service activities, current event discussions, and leadership training workshops.

There are two components to this program; each one meets once per month. 8th-12th graders are invited to participate in one or both parts. Throughout the program, we’ll explore different middot (Jewish values) and put them into practice.

We’d love to kickoff this program with an interest meeting at the JCC Teen Lounge on Sunday, February 26th from 3-4:30pm. During this meeting, we’ll nosh on snacks and let you all help finalize our plans – where you want to do your community service, which days of the week you’d like to meet, and which middot you’d like to incorporate into the program.

A pluralistic Jewish learning community where teens from all over Durham-Chapel Hill come to learn, to laugh, to be inspired. We bring together teens from all backgrounds of Jewish life and welcome you regardless of synagogue affiliation or prior religious education.

One of the most wonderful aspects of Community Midrasha is that we bring together teens representing the diversity of Jewish life in our community. We welcome all Jewish teens regardless of synagogue affiliation or prior religious education.

Our teachers are likewise a diverse group of Rabbis, educators and graduate students from all streams of our community.

Our students have the opportunity to choose two courses each trimester from a wide variety of offerings focused on Modern Hebrew, Torah, Tikkun Olam, Israel, Jewish History, and Jewish Arts. These courses will be held on Sundays at the Education Wing of Judea Reform Congregation from 5:30—7:30 pm. Dinner is served at 5:00 pm.
