Participate in the Jeremiah Fellowship:
Access a dynamic network of organizers, activists, rabbis, visionaries and scholars.
Enhance your vision and clarify your purpose as an emerging change maker.
Expand your knowledge of Jewish tradition, text and history to put ethics into action.

The Jeremiah Fellowship is a nine-month program that runs from September through May. Fellows come together for two weekday evenings per month, three weekend experiences in the field, and two weekend-long retreats. The program culminates with the Jeremiah Challenge, a community-based action project. Since the Fellowship’s launch in 2005, over 150 Jewish leaders have completed the program, forming an active Alumni network around the country.
Throughout the program, Fellows gather to explore the connections between social justice, Jewish values and leadership. The participants learn different models for putting ethics and values into action, share intimate conversations with prominent leaders in the local Jewish and social justice worlds, and engage in meaningful study of Jewish history and texts. Two weekend retreats during the program deepen participants' skills and cultivate the Fellowship community.
Each year the Fellowship focuses on three central areas of study, informed by Jewish values and perspectives. The previous Fellowship included local perspectives on food justice, environmental justice, and immigration. Participants emerge from the Fellowship with skills in community organizing, activism, and grassroots fundraising, better equipped to pursue their own volunteer work and careers in the social justice field. After the Fellowship, participants are invited to join the Alumni Network to stay engaged, informed and connected.
