Jewish Learning
The glue that holds any serious, religious community together is Torah learning - Tanach, Halacha, philosophy, ethics, etc. This could be on your own, b'chevrutah, through a shiur; virtually or in-person; one-off or regularly. In its ideal form it's engaging, compelling, and addicting!
​We'll help you find the perfect program, the ideal partner, or a suitable rabbi/educator to guide you along the process of meaningful Jewish learning. We work alongside the OU's Jewish Learning Initiative on Campus (JLIC), international experts in Jewish learning on campus!
