Morasha: Innovative Approaches to Jewish Identity Programs

A program of Kol Israel Haverim Alliance, promotes values based Jewish Education in secular and religious state schools. Since founded over 12 years ago, Morasha has developed innovative approaches in Jewish identity programming, successfully fostering among students a sense of pride in their heritage, and dialogue in the school environment. Morasha is implemented in 34 schools in Israel's socio geographic periphery, reaching thousands of students and their families, and hundreds of principals, teachers and staff, generating ever expanding ripples of influence. Morasha trains teaching staff; empowers student leadership; and integrates Jewish social values in the school's daily life. By doing so, the school forms a close knit community based on respect and mutual responsibility.
