APPLY TO LEAD A BIRTHRIGHT TRIP

Do you know someone who wants to lead a Birthright trip? Now’s the time to apply! We’re accepting applications until August 16th.

Leading a Birthright trip is a one-of-a-kind opportunity. You will have the enormous responsibility of shaping the experience for a peer group of young Jewish adults, which will leave a lasting impact for years to come.

This unique leadership opportunity requires a long-term commitment. And, in turn, you’ll receive the same from us. Your prep program will kick off with a three-day intensive training weekend in Quebec, followed by supplemental local sessions. You’ll establish a network of Jewish leaders while building your own leadership skills. MORE
