                                                    This program is for returning Or Tzedek participants. Building on experiences from their first summer with us,  Participants spend a week interning with one of our grassroots partner organizations. This program allows for a deeper exploration of, and involvement with social justice issues, campaign and community organizing, as well as to forge a more profound connection to Jewish identity and community.  Participants experience how one organization functions, the challenges they face, how they battle for justice and equality, and much more! They also meet with grassroots organizations and young people who are active leaders in their communities.

                                                    Participants may choose to intern with organizations involved a variety of issues, including:

                                                    * Housing and homelessness * Healthcare * Environmental Justice
                                                    * Racism * Education * Immigrant rights * Worker rights * Much more…
