Junior Teen Friends
Friendship IS a Mitzvah!With your Bar/Bat Mitzvah around the corner you’ve got lots to prep. BUT, there’s always time for friends! Our Junior Teen Friend Workshop Series is geared towards young teens in 7th & 8th grades and is a meaningful way to get ready for your special day and learn the power of Friendship, Inclusion, and Fun!
Each workshop features a guest speaker and many fun hands-on experiences to help you get comfortable spending time with a Special Friend. At the completion of the program, our JTF graduates receive a certificate of completion and may apply to join Friendship Circle’s Group Programs as a Junior Teen Friend.
