As we approach the end of the semester, we would like to celebrate our graduating students! Earlier this month, our second year cohort hosted singer-songwriter and teacher Alicia Jo Rabins for a night of joyful music and community connection, opening with a special performance from the JCLP's own Allie Rosenberg. This event was an incredible culmination of our students' two vears of intense study, reflecting the work which they have put in both in and out of the classroom. In the spirit of honoring the accomplishments and promising futures of the Jewish Communal Leadership Program class of 2026, community members are invited to attend JCLP's annual Graduation Ceremony on Mav 3 from 10am - 12pm at U-M's School of Social Work. All are welcome and a dairy Zingerman's brunch will be served. Find further details and RSVP at https://myumi.ch/bVe9k

The JCLP would like to extend an invitation to two movies playing as part of the 2025-26 Frankel Institute's Symposium on Judaism and Film next week! RSVP here: https://myumi.ch/79GqE
On Mon, Apr 20 from 6:30–9 PM, the Frankel Institute will be showing Sabbath Queen (2024). This documentary follows Rabbi Amichai Lau-Lavie’s journey of reinvention, ritual, and resistance. Following the film will be a discussion panel moderated by Janis Plotkin with Nathan Abrams + Naftali Cohn.
On Tue, Apr 21 from 6:30–9 PM, the Frankel Institute will be showing My One and Only (2025). This film centers around a gripping mystery: new father… or a double (or demon)? The screening will be followed by a discussion panel moderated by Gilad Halpern with Olga Gershenson + Naomi Seidman.

We’re still feeling the energy from this incredible event.💛 Thank you to everyone who came! Fun was had by all as we enjoyed the beautiful voices of Allie Rosenberg and Alicia Jo Rabins, sweet treats and espresso drinks in hand. A huge thank you to Alicia for coming and helping the JCLP mark this moment of Jewish community. Finally, thank you to our generous sponsors for helping to support the event -- we couldn't have done it without you!
