For Families with Children
CBST offers opportunities for families with children to discover Jewish celebration, education, and connection.
Our programs for families with children reflect our LGBTQ+ community, offering our next generation the opportunity to understand the rich tapestry of the Jewish world and find their home in it.
CBST provides a dynamic, inclusive and multifaceted Jewish education program for our families with children. Through learning and doing, our program builds and strengthens a contemporary, learned, relevant, ethical, and deeply rooted sense of Jewish and LGBTQ+ values and identity. This year, in-person sessions will connect families with children to each other, their classmates, and their Jewish identity.
