Vision & Mission
We envision a future when every human being can access and enjoy the incredible database of 3,000 years of Jewish wisdom.
Our mission is to foster a paradigm shift in spiritual and moral education towards an experiential pedagogy that provides students with a spiritual vision relevant to their daily lives. We create seminars, curricula and other materials for both formal and informal learning, and innovative teaching methods for spiritual and moral educators of all backgrounds. Our programs include:
- Torah Health and Fitness – a book, multi-media website, and other resources
- Jewish Teachers Institute – training and mentoring for Jewish day schools
- Zoom Talmud – online communities around a shared intellectual pursuit
- Love Your Neighbor – recruiting and training families to visit isolated elderly
- The Art of Amazement – a popular seminar on the basics of Jewish spirituality
- The Amazing Jewish Fact-a-Day Calendar – an educational app
Our program evaluations indicate that over ninety percent of participants are inspired to seek further learning opportunities; to forge a warm, lasting connection to a spiritual or ethical community; and to lead ethical, fulfilling lives that contribute to Tikkun Olam (repairing the world).
