About Program
RootOne is an initiative of The Jewish Education Project that maximizes both the participation in - and the impact of - immersive summer Israel experiences on Jewish North American teens.
RootOne greatly increases participation in existing Israel experiences by making them more affordable, and deepens the impact of those experiences by bringing innovation, educational resources, staff training, research and evaluation, and so much more to Israel teen trip providers. RootOne does not run its own trip(s) to Israel - RootOne provides financial, organizational and educational support to affiliated Israel trip providers (youth serving organizations, residential camps, Jewish community centers, etc.). Applying for a RootOne voucher is done directly through one of our trip providers. Once registered, an email with a link to apply will be sent directly to participants from the providers.
