We have a Va'ad supervised kosher kitchen. All Shabbat and holidays meals are prepared under this supervision.
During the academic year, Hillel has weekly Friday night Shabbat dinners. On some three-day weekends, we offer "Shabbat to-go" packages, and students pick up challah, grape juice, candles and a Shabbat thought and have dinner together with their friends in their dorms, houses and apartments. The second Friday of every month is also a Jconnect (our program for graduate students and young adults in their 20's and 30's) Shabbat. The program is called re:connect - a musical Shabbat experience, and other weeks Jconnectors can avail themselves of other young adult Shabbat programming in the city with other synagogues and young adult groups or with OneTable.
Frequency: Friday night only
Our Hillel employs a part-time counselor who is available to meet with students 1:1 in person at Hillel or via telehealth. She serves as a resource for our quarterly "Matzah Ball Soup for the Soul" programs and supports our staff and students for all of our unique Wellness programming. We also have a weekly Wellness Walk with our ED.
