Religion & Spirituality:Judaism
A virtual event presentation by Rabbi Joshua Stanton

About The Event:
Our narrative of communal decline overlooks the remarkable growth of the American Jewish community, both numerically and in vibrancy. This conversation will reflect upon the social startups redefining the American Jewish landscape, of which the Valley Beit Midrash is one.
