What Purim Teaches Us About Mental Health
There are many customs on Purim, but I have been very focused on the tradition of dressing up, specifically around how this connects to identity. When we wear a costume, we hide one identity and present another. Over the past few months, I have been thinking about just this: how we decide which parts of our identity to hide and which to present to the outside world.
Why Bamidbar
BaMidbar was born from the Jewish camping movement.
It was founded on the power of experiential education and the belief that Jewish tradition provides tremendous opportunities for growth and self-discovery.
We combine the wisdom, strength, and support inherent in Jewish tradition, with a clinically sophisticated, evidence-based model.
By doing so, BaMidbar provides the framework for Jewish teens and young adults to navigate life’s challenges, find their voice and agency, and rediscover their capacity for a brighter tomorrow.
