Reconnecting Alumni to Conservative Judaism
Project Reconnect seeks to reconnect alumni of USY, Atid, Koach, Nativ, the Conservative Yeshiva, Camp Ramah, the Solomon Schechter schools, the Leadership Training Fellowship, and other Conservative movement programs. Whether you’re in Israel, North America, or anyplace else, this program is for you.
Each of you is a precious human resource to us. You were part of the Conservative movement during your formative years, both influenced by it and contributing to it. That’s why every single one of you is welcome, no matter what your affiliation is today.
Project Reconnect’s mission is to reinvolve, reinvigorate, and reconnect the very many Jewish adults who were touched by the Conservative movement’s programs for teenagers, college students and young adults. Its Israel component provides a rich resource for potential olim and for strengthening Israel - Diaspora relationships.
Come Home for the Holidays
Come Home for the Holiday is a program that offers free High Holiday seats to young adults who grew up in the Conservative movement and don't have a synagogue to go to this year.
Many synagogues can also offer you home hospitality, including invitations to holiday meals or to break the fast with members of the congregation.
This year over 300 synagogues are participating!
United Synagogue affiliated synagogues, together with Project Reconnect and NAASE (the North American Association of Synagogue Executives) extend their personal welcome to you for the upcoming High Holidays with complimentary tickets .
Please review the list of congregations and contact the synagogue of your choice.
Wish you had a mentor? We have one for you!
Ozer V'Shomer, Project Reconnect's Mentoring Program is being launched to provide hands-on personal advice from experienced volunteer mentors. Experienced professionals and business people will guide fellow alumni seeking advice about educational choices, professional training and practices, career advice and business development.
No matter what your profession - Doctor, Lawyer, Teacher, Business Manager, IT Professional, Rabbi, Cantor, Jewish Youth Worker, Scientist, Nurse, Accountant, etc.- Sign up to Ozer V'Shomer today.
Join the effort in helping our alumni in need of your advice and counsel. Once we have sufficiently completed our Ozer V' Shomer listings, we shall be able to competently open our Mentoring Page to our alumni seeking a mentor for his/her particular situation and our potential mentors will be contacted when they have been matched with an interested student.
Project Reconnect, Woman's League For Conservative Judaism and the North American Association of Synagogue Executives have joined together in this effort to link the generations of our alumni by delivering this meaningful and helpful service, especially to our younger alumni, in response to their needs and the needs of our community.

MERCAZ is the voice of North America Conservative Jews for Israel and Zionism. Through MERCAZ, Conservative Jews NOW can play a significant role in helping the MOVEMENT secure and expand communal allocation of funds for programs and activities in United States, Israel and worldwide.
It is time for US to show pride in the Conservative/Masorti Movement by joining MERCAZ.

For All Solomon Schechter Day School Alumni
We Encourage all SSDS alumni to get involved in the "Distinguished Alumni Profile Program" that has been established in order to demonstrate how as Schechter School graduates you have gone onto institutions of higher learning and developed careers in which you have helped to make the world a better place. See what many of your old friends are doing today and how as an SS Day School graduate your career achievements can further benefit future Solomon Schechter Day School graduates.
