Room, board (including most meals), materials and ground transportation will be fully subsidized for program participants. Select interns may be offered continued internships and additional on-going field work at Isralight programs in North America. The Isralight Summer Rabbinic Internships will train future rabbinic leaders in innovative and effective ways to communicate in a compelling and inspiring manner.

Additionally, it will expose participants to many of the fundamental texts that form the basis of Isralight's all-embracing educational philosophy and approach. Program Highlights * Interns will engage in guided think-tank sessions addressing challenging issues that contemporary Jewish leaders must face.
