L'Taken - Teen Social Justice Seminar in Washington DC
2025-02-21 - 2025-02-24
L’Taken means “to repair” in Hebrew, and, in partnership with the Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism (RAC), teens will have the opportunity to impact and begin to repair our country as they share their views on social justice topics with decision-makers on Capitol Hill. This trip will be led by Rabbi Greg Weisman.

The weekend will give teens the knowledge and tools to write an effective, persuasive and passionate speech on a topic of their choice to present to our Senators and Representatives. This unique experience can have a significant impact on the course of legislation, as members of Congress have chosen to co-sponsor, offer amendments to, and vote for pieces of legislation that participants discussed.

Programming will expose teens to a range of topics, eventually encouraging them to focus on a single issue about which they are particularly passionate. Throughout the weekend, teens will have the opportunity to attend programs on a range of topics including Israel, the environment, reproductive rights, LGBTQ+ rights, antisemitism and economic justice, and more.
The group will also have the opportunity to visit various Smithsonian museums and the National Mall and celebrate havdallah at a national monument with fellow Reform Jews from across the US devoted to pursuing tikkun olam.

Price: $250 – This does not include airfare and students will pay for 1 meal a day on their own. This program is being generously supported by Temple Beth El’s social justice efforts.
Please note: Space is limited!
Register Today! Together, we can fulfill the commandment of Tzedek, tzedek tirdof, justice, justice you shall pursue (Deuteronomy 16:20).
