This year’s workshop is offered in partnership with Character Day, www.letitripple.org/character-day/techshabbat/, September 27-28, 2019!

Character Day is an annual global event that brings together millions of people in schools, companies, homes -- anywhere people already gather -- to engage in character/Middot development (gevurah, chesed, hakarat hatov), which, science shows, leads not only to stronger school and career performance, but also to stronger, more engaged individuals and a more just world.
