Shlichim are emissaries from Israel who have completed their mandatory military service and choose to serve in Jewish agencies around the world. These carefully selected ambassadors bring the spirit and culture of Israel to life in our camp program.

Shlichim Counselors are always excited to bring their unique perspectives and enthusiasm to enhance our campers’ experience. They will be sharing their stories, traditions, and the vibrant culture of Israel, creating memorable and enriching experiences for everyone.

Our Shlichim are hosted by families in our community for periods of one to two weeks throughout the summer. This is a wonderful opportunity for families to engage in a culturally enriching experience and forge lasting connections.

We are still seeking families interested in this culturally enriching experience in 2025.

If you are interested in hosting or know of a family that would like to experience hosting one or both counselors, please contact Brian Adler at 609-822-1167 x159 or email badler@jccatlantic.org.
