HEA Mench Academy

First and foremost: MAZEL TOV on your journey to becoming a Bar/Bat Mitzvah at the Hebrew Educational Alliance. We look forward to walking with you and your family to and beyond this simcha!

At HEA, we strive to elevate bar/bat mitzvah into a transformative rite of passage to initiate young adolescents into emerging adulthood better understanding themselves, their roles in their families, their belonging in the Jewish community, and their purpose in the larger world.  Our mission is to partner with families in the goal of making mensches out of our children.

We are strongly encouraging all families who plan to celebrate their B’nai Mitzvah at HEA to take advantage of the full Mensch Academy program. Through the detailed program we have designed for our families, we think you will find a meaningful and clear process to best prepare you and your student for the launch into the world as an emerging Jewish adolescent.
