We are facing a unique time as a Jewish people when the mitzvah of pidyon shvuyim, redeeming the captives, is top of mind as 134 hostages are still held by Hamas in Gaza. What can you as an educator be doing to help the captives?In this extremely timely episode, Clare Goldwater and Elyssa Moss Rabinowitz discuss their educational campagin, Everyone Counts, which they started during the war in partnership with The Jewish Education Project. Through resources and information on their website, the campaign is for anyone who wants to raise awareness of the hostages but is not sure where to start, making this moment accessible through education, advocacy, and teaching us how to be responsible for one another.This episode is part of a limited series, "Israel Education in a Post-October 7th World."
