Review for Moving Traditions, Jenkintown, PA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

For six years, every month except July, I would meet with a "Rosh Chodesh Group"- a program run by Moving Traditions. We had two facilitators, both social workers, and then a group of girls that started at 10 and ended up at five over the years, all the same grade, that would meet. We would have a different basic topic every month, all pertaining to the various issues of our young lives. For two years, 10th & 11th grades, we had a leadership program. We learned about different roles in the group, delegating, time keeping & management, staying on task, and planning events. These skills have helped me tremendously in every work place & every situation with which I am in charge. I am still in contact with both the facilitators and the group members that I spent these 6 years with, and they are now my friends & support group for life.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

Every part of my life, because it helped me come to terms with who I am as a person. I learned to accept myself.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

Kind, open-minded, caring, hard-working, and accepting of everyone. Always had helpful advice. Always.
