Parenting Through a Jewish Lens

Parenting Through a Jewish Lens, a 10-week program offered by Hebrew College and CJP's Commission on Jewish Life and Learning, brings together caring parents and expert facilitators.

Energetic and memorable conversations lead to a greater understanding of your vital role as parent:

  • Explore core values (ikkarim) that can strengthen your family.
  • Learn with expert instructors who understand your concerns as a parent.
  • Enjoy rich conversations with other parents on topics that matter

Classes typically begin in the fall and are offered at synagogues and private homes throughout Greater Boston. Participants come from all backgrounds.
