Diller Teen Fellows Toronto
Diller Teen Fellows is a year-long international leadership program for teens in Grade 10 and 11. Throughout the year, participants explore their Jewish identities and connect with Fellows from across the globe. They are empowered to become leaders who serve as forces for good throughout their lifetimes.
The Diller Teen Fellows Toronto program includes workshops once or twice a month, three Shabbatons (weekend retreats), a spring seminar in Toronto, and a trip to Israel in July. We work in close partnership with the Diller Teen Fellows in Eilat-Eilot, Israel.

Hear about the Diller experience from a Toronto alum:
The Diller Teen Fellows program is based on four key pillars:
Leadership
Participants are challenged to define their strengths, weaknesses, and personal leadership goals. They finish the program with meaningful experiences they can apply to real world challenges.
Jewish Identity
Participants are encouraged to explore their notions of Jewish identity and those of their peers. The result is a deeper understanding of what it means to be Jewish, both individually and collectively.
Israel
A peak experience of the program is the Israel Summer Seminar that brings all participants together. This unique trip immerses our Fellows in the diversity and vibrancy of modern Israel and connects them to Diller Fellows from around the world.
