NEW Peer Leaders Fellowship: January – June 2022
The Peer Leaders Fellowship (PLF) program is a paid fellowship consisting of a select group of Jewish 9th-12th graders who are interested in strengthening the San Diego Jewish community and programs for Jewish teens. PLF’s will participate in three training sessions led by experts from a business management consulting firm, gain real-life resume building skills, and receive $500 for their time and work.
PLF’s will help our community better understand and serve teens by building and strengthening relationships with their Jewish peers. PLF’s will work collaboratively to inform teen-serving organizations and teen professionals about the lives, minds, and hearts of local Jewish teens. If PLF’s are interested, they will have the opportunity to use their findings to partner with Jewish organizations to plan and implement important and meaningful programs for Jewish teens.
