Nominations Open: NE Teen Leadership Summit

August 17, 2017 By eJP

The Dana Gershon and Rabbi Jonah Pesner Northeast Leadership Summit, which takes place September 15-17, 2017 at URJ Eisner Camp, provides participants with opportunities for real-life skill building with a focus on entrepreneurship, critical thinking, collaboration, creativity, and risk taking. At the end of the Summit, participants pitch their ideas in a “Shark-Tank” style program; judges invest real dollars in the most compelling pitches; and participants go home inspired and excited about the potential of their own ideas. This is a great event for those looking to create real positive change and add substance to their resumes.

The Summit is part of URJ Eisner and Crane Lake Camps’ year-round youth engagement and leadership development efforts connected to the Northeast Teen Collective.
