While there are institutions that provide a place for women to engage in serious Torah study, Yeshivat Maharat has taken an important step further. Through a rigorous curriculum of Talmud, halakhic decision-making (psak), pastoral counseling, leadership development, and internship experiences, our graduates will be prepared to assume the responsibility and authority to be poskot (legal arbiters) for the community. Maharat is a Hebrew acronym for Manhiga Hilkhatit Rukhanit Toranit, one who is teacher of Jewish law and spirituality. 0 0 308203 85500 804 The four year YM curriculum is partially modeled on Orthodox ordination programs, with the goal of providing our students the necessary skills to be confident spiritual leaders in the Jewish community. Upon graduation, students will be experts in Jewish law, Talmud, Bible, Jewish Thought and will also have strong rhetorical facility and counseling proficiency. In addition to mastery of text and its application to contemporary situations, students will participate in courses in Pastoral education, Practical Rabbinics and Professional Development. There will also be special programs in inter-denominational dialogue, inter-faith dialogue and inclusiveness of marginalized groups within the Orthodox community. This year, Yeshivat Maharat has fourteen students enrolled in the program, and our enrollment will continue to grow. To fully prepare students for careers in Jewish leadership, during the course of the program students complete internships in synagogues, Hillels, Jewish communal organizations and travel to new communities as visiting scholars. 0 0 0 Outside the classroom, students are featured as Scholars-in-Residence at synagogues, participate in panel discussions, and engage in teaching opportunities. Yeshivat Maharat has a comprehensive internship placement program providing students with practical experience working in synagogues, schools and communal organizations. Learning in the field will benefit both students and the community while also opening up communities to the idea of Orthodox women in spiritual leadership positions. This year there are 8 scholars-in-residence. 0 0 0 308203 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 17 0 1 6 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 8 8 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 NY X DAC Management Inc 9736189288 373 Route 46 West Suite 250 Building D Fairfield NJ 07004 Sara Hurwitz 40 X X 30000 0 0 Leah Krakinowski 5 X 0 0 0 Andy Silberstein 5 X 0 0 0 Chani Laufer 5 X 0 0 0 Abigail Tambor 5 X 0 0 0 Belda Lindenbaum 5 X 0 0 0 Samantyha Kur 5 X 0 0 0 Daniel Held 5 X 0 0 0 Chain Trachtman 5 X 0 0 0 Jeffrey S Fox 40 X X 95400 0 0 Dalia Miller 40 X X 40000 0 0 165400 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 355499 0 355499 Pastoral Education Workshop 813110 804 804 0 0 0 0 0 0 804 0 0 0 0 0 0 356303 804 0 0 0 0 97500 97500 0 0 0 0 165400 119400 23000 23000 50243 50243 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 15388 12106 1641 1641 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2512 1984 276 252 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 7877 7873 4 0 3791 2995 417 379 922 728 102 92 0 0 0 0 10000 10000 0 0 2180 1986 194 0 0 0 0 575 575 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Paypal and Bank Fees 583 583 0 0 Evaluation 700 700 0 0 Food & Catering 1530 1530 0 0 359201 308203 25634 25364 5510 2590 5510 2590 22 0 22 0 X 5488 2590 0 0 0 0 5488 2590 5510 2590 -2898 0 X 0 0 0 X 0 0 29164 247709 355499 632372 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 29164 247709 355499 632372 0 0 0 0 199000 231810 430810 0 0 0 199000 231810 430810 201562 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 29164 247709 355499 632372 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 1 Fellowship awards to participants of pastoral program 10 97500 0 $1500 for full time and $750 for part time students SchI_P01_S00_L02 Schedule I, Part I, Line 2 The stipends are given to the students to help cover the cost of their living expenses while studying at Yeshivat Maharat.
