Moving Traditions recently launched a new national initiative for Jewish teens called Kumi (meaning “wake up” or “rise up” in Hebrew). It is a unique program in the Jewish teen and racial justice landscape in that it helps to prepare 10th, 11th and 12th graders for leadership and activism on college campuses, in social justice spaces, and wherever else their passions take them. In Spring 2023, the program had its first JoC Empowerment track as a part of its multiracial cohort. JoCI funding supported the JoC Empowerment track and the JoC staff working on the track.
