YAMIM 2026: VISIONS AND VALUES

Cleveland | February 25th, 2026 | 9:30am-2:30pm

At a moment when Israel itself is at a crossroads, Yom HaZikaron and Yom HaAtzmaut offer an opportunity to pause and reflect: What visions of Israel do we want to teach toward?


Yamim is a day-long professional development lab that invites Jewish professionals to explore Israel through its clarifying visions and complicated crossroads, and to design meaningful, values-driven learning experiences for their communities.


Participants will gain access to cutting-edge resources and methodologies to make meaning from the many crossroads Israel and Israel education face today — along with fresh ideas, tools, and inspiration to bring directly into their Yamim programming — and beyond.
