Teen Programs

Tzelem is a transformative teen group for LGBTQ+, nonbinary, and gender expansive teens and allies to explore who they are through Jewish and gender lenses, together with a trained mentor using a dynamic curriculum.

A joint project of a number of Baltimore-Area synagogues and 4Front, Baltimore’s teen engagement initiative, and facilitated by Lily Glushakow-Smith, teens will meet monthly in participants homes. The first meeting will will take place on a date and time will be determined by the group. Meetings are held in members’ homes on a rotational basis.  There will be a small fee to cover food and materials.

Program begins in September and new members will be accepted through December 2024
