Our Programs

To ignite curiosity and connection

Campus Ready

Through interactive workshops, participants build emotional resilience and create practical action plans to address challenges to their Jewish identity on campus, all while connecting with a supportive network of peers and mentors.

Dreams of Others

An immersive seminar that  explores the different voices in the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict. The program sharpens participants' thinking and listening skills, and helps them unpack and understand the many angles of the Conflict. 

Dreams and Dilemmas

This educational journey equips Jewish educators to explore the complexities and dilemmas facing Israeli society post-October 7th, 2023, fostering empathy, critical thinking, and an understanding of diverse perspectives within and beyond their communities.

"Through participating in a program with Makom, I learned different protocols for engaging in dialogue across differences. I was challenged at times by the thoughts and perspectives that were being discussed, but was able to appreciate the opportunity to engage with the people who held these differing views."
