The Diller Teen Fellows Program is a leadership development program for exceptional Jewish teens. Now operating in six other communities in the United States, the goal of the Diller program is to develop future generations of Jewish leaders who will be committed to the Jewish people, Israel, and community service by exploring the following themes:

• Judaism and Jewish Identity
• Community Service
• Leadership
• Israel

• eight Sunday workshops
• three Shabbaton weekend retreats
• three evening programs
• A three-week Summer Seminar in Israel built around a mifgash (intensive meeting and interaction with Israeli teens)
• Home hospitality weekend with the Israeli teens while they visit the US
• Group and individual community service projects
