You Asked, We Listened
Camp directors and Jewish educators told us what they needed: simplified access, flexible options that work with different session lengths, and programs that integrate smoothly into cabin and group life. We’ve refreshed our partnership model to deliver exactly that, making it easier than ever to bring Moving Traditions’ field-tested identity building experiences to your campers, CITs, and staff.
More Flexible Access
- New tiered subscription options mean you can choose the level that fits your camp’s community — whether you’re serving a specific group of campers or your entire staff.
Streamlined Programs
- Easier-to-access curriculum that gets you up and running faster, without sacrificing depth or quality.
The Same Expert Support
- The training, responsiveness, and partnership you’ve come to expect from Moving Traditions — now paired with greater flexibility.
What Makes Moving Traditions Different
- Moving Traditions provides a diverse suite of field-tested, developmentally appropriate programs for Jewish preteens, teens, and staff. Our curriculum for campers weaves Jewish wisdom with camper-centered discussions, hands-on experiences, and activities that nurture belonging, resilience, and connection. Our staff training curriculum prepares your staff to promote the wellbeing of campers in their care.
