About the Fellowship:

Yaffed is pleased to announce its 2021 Fellowship Program for undergraduate and graduate  college and university students across New York State. The Yaffed Fellowship is designed to give students hands-on experience with Yaffed’s work of advocating for substantial secular education within ultra-Orthodox Jewish yeshivas. 

Fellows will contribute to organizational strategy, assist with ongoing projects, and increase awareness of the issue within their own networks. The ideal candidates are students who feel passionately about Yaffed’s issue, are interested in social justice and educational equality, and seek to make a meaningful difference within the lives of ultra-Orthodox schoolchildren.
