When you encounter bashing against Jews and Israel on campus, how will you respond?  In this 2 hour workshop, teens will learn how to help preserve the image of Israel on campus at their high school or as they head off to college.  We will also cover some Israel 101 advocacy tools for high school students.  Through moving videos, role play and conversation, you will build a stronger connection to Israel and be able to speak up on behalf of the Jewish State.  Stand With Us is an international educational organization that ensures that Israel's side of the story is told in communities, on campuses and in the media.  Stand With Us was founded in 2001 in response to the misinformation that often surrounds the Middle East conflict, and the inappropriate, often anti-Semetic, language used about Israel and/or the Jewish people worldwide.  Pizza lunch included.  RSVP is requested by Tuesday, November 1 to daniels@jccrockland.org or 845-362-4400 ext 115
