Kallah offers a deep Judaic experience in which participants are given the opportunity to explore their own Jewish identity and engage with spirituality, culture and religion. The Kallah experience strives to provide a well-rounded exposure to some of the core principles, values and tenets of Jewish life. Kallah brings together a faculty of some of the most talented educators, artists, thinkers and creative minds that the Jewish community has to offer, and also provides teens with a forum to learn from and work with one another to delve deeper into the aspects of Judaism that they find meaningful. The program requires no background in formal Jewish education ? in fact the Kallah community flourishes through the diversity of its participants and their experiences, traditions and knowledge. Teens will emerge from the Kallah program with a strong sense of self, but also of Kehillah (community), feeling connected to their fellow participants through bonds and friendships that will last for years to come.
