Students become ‘Leaders for Tomorrow’

April 29, 2026
By SSLI News Team

On April 26, five Schechter students were recognized for completing AJC Long Island's Leaders for Tomorrow program. Another two were recognized for completing LFT Next, the second- and third-year program.

LFT is a year-long advocacy and leadership development initiative run by the American Jewish Committee. Through immersive learning, hands-on experiences, and skill-building, students learn how to combat antisemitism, engage meaningfully with their communities, and advocate for the Jewish people and Israel.

SSLI alumna Yael Pedram, ‘25, spoke on a panel about her experiences in the program. Congratulations to Jordan Bitton, Jake Siegel, Gilad Nitzan, Lia Nitzan, Josh Jurmann, Yoni Pedram, and Elan Golan!
