REALITY Israel Experience for Teach For America Corps Members takes a cohort of current Teach For America corps members for a free 10-day trip to Israel to see sites, learn first-hand about the Israeli educational system and explore the values that drive their professional aspirations and volunteerism. This leadership development opportunity provides corps members with new skills and tools to make meaningful differences in the communities and classrooms in which they live and work. www.tfaisraelexperience.org

The 2010 trip included 45 TFA corps members who were selected based on prior achievements, potential to transform participation into meaningful action, and ability to contribute positively to the group experience. Check out a sample program itinerary.

Applications for the 2011 trip are now closed. Sign up to receive more information on the 2012 trip.

The program is a partnership between CLSFF, the Samberg Family Foundation, and Teach For America.
