Each year Abraham’s Vision continues to advance its mission of empowering young people to practice and explore just alternatives to the status quo. Through our Vision and Unity programs we have seen a real change for the better. In particular, the Unity Program has enjoyed great success in the past year. In three school years we have graduated 79 Muslim and Jewish students! We also recently expanded our reach through four new educational institutions in the San Francisco Bay Area, reaching an additional forty students and their families. In addition, we successfully launched our third annual Vision Program in June 2008, taking 22 Jewish and Palestinian university students to the Balkans on our groundbreaking comparative conflict program, taking the number of Vision Program participants to 58.
Direct beneficiaries per year: 60 Unity Program Participants and 22 Vision Program Participants
Indirect beneficiaries per year: Close to one thousand indirect beneficiaries, including family, schoolmates, and members of the community that participate in workshops and presentations.
