Grounded in a historic intent of improving relations between the black and Jewish communities, the Elijah Cummings Youth Program in Israel’s mission is to foster positive relations between all ethnic communities in the 7th Congressional District.
Through its two distinct components, a four-week trip to Israel and the two-year Jerold C. Hoffberger Leadership Enhancement Program, student participants learn and develop skills that will help them become a cadre of future leaders who will promote interethnic understanding and racial and religious tolerance.
Through this program, students assume new responsibilities, affirm leadership potential and learn the importance of cooperation and civic participation.
