Ever want to become a B'nai Mitzvah, but never got the chance to?
Beginning Fall 2026, our first-ever B'Mitzvah cohort will empower students to embrace this meaningful milestone surrounded by friends, family, and their Hillel Community. Over the course of the academic year, students learn to read Hebrew, sing prayers, chant Torah, and design their own tallitot, all while exploring Jewish values and wisdom. The experience culminates in a Shabbat morning service led by students that deepens their connection and commitment to Jewish life.

"Participating in the Jewish Learning Fellowship brought me back to what I loved about Hebrew School growing up. It reminded me of the joy and connection I felt as a Jewish kid while helping me learn more about Judaism and broaden my understanding of my faith and heritage."

“Coming from a town with a very small Jewish community, Hillel for Utah and specifically JLF gave me a sense of belonging within the Jewish community that I’ve never had before. Connecting with other students and exploring each of our Jewish identities was so powerful. It reaffirmed that while everyone’s Judaism is different, we all support one another’s experiences and journeys.”
"Through Hillel's learning opportunities, like the Jewish Learning Fellowship (JLF), I push myself to find new meanings, create deeper understandings, and become an advocate for my community."
