Student Reflections

JLIC has really made my move to Israel as seamless as possible. The amazing Shabbat programs have helped me meet friends and find my support system.
JLIC is a program I’m familiar with from college in the US and was great to have here to help me transition to living in Israel. I have met most of my friends through JLIC and usually go to our JLIC couple for a Shabbat meal if they are hosting, which is always a relief and joy.
JLIC creates a home-like environment with delicious Shabbat meals and programs. The JLIC program helps bring people together who otherwise probably wouldn't meet, which helps make connections. This also creates a religious environment that makes it easier to maintain contact with religion.
I felt like I was able to go to an Israeli University because I had an Anglo community to rely on because of JLIC.
