Review for Join for Justice, Boston, MA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

In three different years I met with the volunteers to lead a seminar on the role of Jewishness and of Israel in their lives. Those seminars were fascinating and exciting. The volunteers were extremely thoughtful people with good access to their own emotional and intellectual processes. They were serious and mature. It was clear that their internships would be important in their own further growth and that they would be serious assets to the host organizations in which they would work. JOI itself is an excellent organization. Their selection process had been first=rate, and the programs are first-rate. It is a pleasure to recommen JOI strongly and with no resergvations.

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

the high quality of the selection process and the smooth and thoughtful staff work. No glitches; steady support.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

working in annual interactive seminars with the volunteers. I taught similar year-long seminar courses at University of Michigan with a similar population. JOI's people were terrific! Smart, thoughtful, dedicated--first-rate!

Ways to make it better...

I could also have met with the volunteers a second time during their placements and been able then to give feedback to the organization re possible improvements.
