THE PROGRAM USES JEWISH TEACHINGS AND PRACTICES - IN A FIVE-YEAR CYCLE OF CURRICULAR MATERIALS - TO GIVE GIRLS A PLACE TO FEEL SAFE, ARTICULATE THEIR DEEPEST CONCERNS, CONSIDER THE IMPACT OF GENDER ON THEIR DAILY LIVES, HAVE FUN, AND BE 'REAL' WITH THEIR PEERS. ROSH HODESH WAS DEVELOPED BY EDUCATORS, RABBIS, SOCIAL WORKERS, AND PSYCHOLOGISTS TO ADDRESS THE REAL NEEDS OF TEEN GIRLS WITHIN A RICH JEWISH CONTEXT. IT WAS THE FIRST PROGRAM TO DRAW ON JEWISH TEACHINGS AND TRADITIONS TO KEEP GIRLS HEALTHY AND WHOLE, INSTILLING IN THEM THE ABILITY TO COUNTER NARROW VIEWS OF GENDER IN POPULAR CULTURE. TODAY, OVER A DECADE LATER, WITH NEARLY 350 GROUPS MEETING THIS YEAR - SOME OF WHOM FOR THEIR THIRD, FOURTH AND EVEN FIFTH YEARS - AND MORE THAN 1,000 WOMEN TRAINED AS GROUP LEADERS, THE PROGRAM HAS TOUCHED THE LIVES OF MORE THAN 14,000 GIRLS. MOVING TRADITION'S NEW PROGRAM FOR TEEN BOYS, SHEVET ACHIM, GREW OUT OF THREE YEARS OF RESEARCH. SEEING THAT BOYS WERE DISCONNECTING FROM JEWISH LIFE AFTER BAR MITZVAH, AT A TIME WHEN THE GUIDANCE, FRIENDSHIP, AND SENSE OF PURPOSE THAT JUDAISM COULD PROVIDE WERE MOST NEEDED, WE SET OUT TO RE-IMAGINE THE TRANSITION FROM BEING A BOY TO BEING A YOUNG MAN. IN THE 2016-17 ACADEMIC YEAR, MOVING TRADITIONS PARTNERED WITH JEWISH INSTITUTIONS ACROSS THE COUNTRY - SYNAGOGUES, JCCS AND JEWISH DAY SCHOOLS - TOUCHING THE LIVES OF MORE THAN 1,300 BOYS, MORE THAN TWICE THE NUMBER OF POST-BAR MITZVAH BOYS FROM WHEN WE LAUNCHED THE PROGRAM IN THE FALL OF 2011. 1886302 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false true false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 29 0 false 22 true false false false false false false false false false false X 11 11 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true false false false CA CO NJ NY PA VA TX WA MD MA IL X ROBIN COHEN 2158874511 261 OLD YORK RD STE 734 JENKINTOWN PA 19046 SALLY GOTTESMAN BOARD CHAIR 1.00 X X 0 0 0 LORIN DECKER DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 LORI PERLOW DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 MADELYN BUCKSBAUM ADAMSON DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 RABBI CAROLE BALIN DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 ALISA DOCTOROFF DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 SHERYL KAYE DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 JONATHAN KRASNER SECRETARY 1.00 X X 0 0 0 MIKE MARKOVITS DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 RABBI SHIRLEY IDELSON TREASURER 1.00 X X 0 0 0 HOPE SUTTIN VICE CHAIR 1.00 X X 0 0 0 DEBORAH MEYER CEO 40.00 X X 143000 0 16928 143000 16928 1 false false false 2691425 2691425 PROGRAM FEES 900099 97142 97142 OTHER 900099 2466 2466 2466 2791033 99608 1456086 1188655 102793 164638 159419 129129 11617 18673 111666 90450 8137 13079 255507 204700 50726 81 64129 54230 9899 0 45655 37443 8212 0 51304 44124 7180 0 34017 31640 2377 0 54046 51009 2558 479 8471 6861 1610 0 Program scholarships 24340 24340 0 0 Printing, copy & design 25649 23721 1827 101 2290289 1886302 206936 197051 388352 640585 586038 851142 1300 2250 33550 40994 183397 171951 14120 11446 5685 3885 1029045 1550302 13630 43211 49120 40052 62750 83263 X 288121 419730 678174 1047309 966295 1467039 1029045 1550302 500744 X false true X true false X 0 0 0 1106823 1227690 1919041 1953509 2691425 8898488 103263 115289 103288 120449 97142 539431 1210086 1342979 2022329 2073958 2788567 9437919 423918 435000 535818 1394736 50000 50000 423918 435000 585818 1444736 7993183 1111 374 528 538 374 2925 1111 374 528 538 374 2925 2500 9717 2090 14307 9455151 0.84540 0.88700 0.00030 0.00050 X Pt III Ln 12 Other Income Part III, Line 12 Description: HONORARIUM RECEIVED 2014: 2500. 2015: 1975. 2016: 1050.
