How is the Charles Beit Midrash related to social justice? We try to bring together people who are interested in making Jewish learning and social justice an integral part of their lives. One of our goals is to help people connect Judaism and social justice, both in thought and ispiration to action. I don't have a chevruta (learning partner). Can I still come? How do I find a learning partner? If you do not have a learning partner already, we can help you find one. Please fill out our chavruta matching form and we will do our best to find you a compatible partner - someone at your learning level who shares a common learning interest. If you have questions about the form or the chevruta matching process, please contact Sarah. Following the teacher led session, there are several options available. People can learn together in pairs to study material supplied by that evening's teacher or material they have brought on their own. There is also a faciliated small group learning option meant to build chevruta style learning skills. Can I lead a session? Yes, anyone can lead a session. We're always excited to have new teachers and we have support available if you would like help putting together a learning session. Interested? Contact Jonah for more information.
