SPECIAL MESSAGE FOR OUR CAMPERS: While our ability to operate this summer still remains uncertain, Camp Northland is not going anywhere. As soon as it is possib...le, we will be back to the business of creating magical summer experiences up at Moose lake. We want you to know know that no matter what happens this summer, you can handle the situation. In fact, camp itself has helped prepare you to deal with these types of life ‘curve balls’. Camp has helped to give you the resiliency to thrive despite the challenges. We have prepared this very thought as a video message, just for you. Camp is here, and we will be back running amazing programs for you as soon as possible, whether this summer, throughout the year or for the Summer of 2021. #stayhomewithNBB #stayhometocomehome special thanks to @dreamvision_group Michelle Klein DreamVision See more

Great piece in the Canadian Jewish News (The CJN) about 2019 Covenant Award recipient Dr. Gregory Beiles and how he has brought an integrated, interdisciplinary approach to Jewish education to The Toronto Heschel School.

This week, we received this lovely letter from one of our young clients, Isaac, a grade 5 student at Paul Penna Downtown Jewish Day School. The letter explains ...why he chose to feature JIAS Toronto as part of Project Give Back (a school based program that empowers children to learn and teach their peers about a charity of their choice). "I love the work you do and I wouldn't be in Canada writing you this letter, feeling happy and settled if it weren't for your amazing organization. Thank you." Thank YOU, Isaac!

We are thrilled to announce the recipients of the 2019 Covenant Award!
