Sinai is a two-week summer experience like nothing else in the world. Our unique program gives Jewish men and women from diverse backgrounds and affiliations an opportunity to explore what it really means to be Jewish.  At Sinai, you will engage in a vibrant excursion through contemporary and classical Jewish thought. Perhaps even more importantly, you will take this journey in a warm, open environment that makes it easy to ask straight-forward questions.

There’s also plenty of time for recreation and relaxation: canoeing; swimming; tennis; basketball; baseball; hiking; volleyball; water sports; ping-pong…and much more! 

The popular Sinai-on-the-Hill program is a Sinai Retreats initiative. Students are placed ‘on the Hill’ at desirable summer internship positions with select Representatives or Senators.
