Moving Traditions inspires women and men, boys and girls engage more deeply with Judaism. We use gender as our framework because it shapes the way culture defines who we are and can become. Our programs include:

  • Rosh Hodesh: it's a girl thing! – building the self-esteem, leadership skills, and Jewish identity for almost 6,000 teenage girls of all backgrounds across North America.

  • Campaign for Jewish Boys – an action-research campaign to help educators understand and inspire the Jewish identity of teenage boys by helping them explore what it means to become a man.

  • Bat Mitzvah Firsts – exploring the introduction and evolution of the bat mitzvah to understand how innovation is made in Jewish life.
