At a time when people are feeling the need to bring about societal change, the Social Justice Program offers a relevant course of study and action. Melton is making our Social Justice course available to all Jewish communities, whether or not they are already an official Melton partner.

Social Justice is a response to the suffering and indignity in our lives and in the larger world. This Melton course explores how social justice work goes beyond addressing short-term immediate needs and looks at structural causes of injustice and how these are best addressed today. It combines the study of Jewish sources, history and work to give participants a deep understanding of social justice and a framework for navigating their moral choices.

Melton Neighborhood Pop-Up Learning promotes immersive pluralistic Jewish learning to new community audiences of adults in Long Island and Brooklyn. We introduce Melton learning through two introductory 4-session courses, Modern Living: Maintaining Balance and We are What We Remember.

The Yesod Community Leadership Development program helps Federation communities build their pipeline of excellent volunteer leadership. Hands-on training develops practical leadership skills. Jewish texts frame and inspire the conversation. This program is a collaboration between The Mandel Center for Leadership Excellence at the Jewish Federations of North America (JFNA) and Melton.

Bringing this program to a community is an investment in the development of individuals with leadership potential in order to build sustainable volunteer leadership as well as solid and empowering volunteer succession plans.
