JOLT (JIAS Opportunity for Leadership Training) is providing a forum where Russian-speaking Jews can identify opportunities for connection and involvement in the community. Nine participants have completed eight workshops ranging from topics on Jewish identity to Jewish communal structure. In addressing some of these issues, there were opportunities to network with lay leaders and Jewish communal professionals. JOLT participants are currently engaged in the internship practicum of the program where participants are matched with a lay leader from the Jewish community as their mentor, to provide practical volunteer experience.
