Virtual Workshop: Mikveh Education in Your Community

Join us for an interactive webinar designed to train participants on how to take the essential building blocks of Mayyim Hayyims’s most popular education program, “Introduction to Mikveh,” and adapt it for multiple ages, regardless of whether or not your community has a mikveh. Participants will walk away with practical tools to bring mikveh education to their community or gain new ideas for enhancing an existing program.

“Introduction to Mikveh” is taught nearly 80 times a year in the Education Center at Mayyim Hayyim to 4th graders, senior citizens, and everything in between. Led by the Associate Director of Education at Mayyim Hayyim, Leeza Negelev, this webinar is an opportunity to explore the instructional techniques that make this program so popular.
