Overview

Mission

Sos international programs/projects strives to enrich next-generation jewish identity and values through international exchanges. Next-generation jews will embrace their jewish identities and revitalize jewish communities around the world. This is accomplished through two signature programs: the high school morim limud program the early childhood morim program

What it reported doing in 2024

The early childhood morim program is designed to improve american, central and eastern european jewish early childood centers by implementing the most current early childhood pedagogic methods; curiculum; and teaching/learning environments. Towards that end, a five-year professional development exchange program between selected greater Washington jewish early childhood centers and several bulgarian, polish and romanian jewish early childhood centers have been established. Each early childhood center in eastern europe, in consultation with our team of experts/advisory committee, will determine what professional development plan is needed.
