Ohr Chana is designed for girls entering 11th and 12th grade.

Ohr Chana is for girls who have questions about Judaism and are looking to deepen their connection to their faith in a real and meaningful way. Our approach is unique, offering an out-of-the-box perspective that empowers each individual to explore and grow in their Jewish identity.

We provide a supportive environment that encourages personal development, self-discovery, and meaningful growth, allowing each student to take ownership of their journey and build a strong, grounded sense of self.

Ohr Chana is not the right fit for students who are struggling with severe mental health challenges or serious addiction issues. Additionally, our program is designed for girls who are open to exploring and growing in their Jewish identity. While we offer a welcoming, supportive environment for personal growth, we are focused on nurturing those who have a genuine desire to deepen their connection to Judaism. We aim to maintain an atmosphere of mutual respect and commitment to personal development, and we encourage students who share these values to join Ohr Chana.

At Ohr Chana, we specialize in providing individualized attention and fostering personal growth in a creative, open, and supportive environment. We believe every girl is unique, so we focus on tailoring our approach to each individual's needs

Ohr Chana is directed and founded by Uri Perlman, founder of Wilkes-Barre Yeshiva. Along with a team of dedicated and experienced staff, we are committed to providing a nurturing and empowering environment for young girls. For more information on our incredible staff, please visit our staff page.

Ohr Chana is located in the scenic, lush mountains of the Poconos in Pennsylvania, offering a peaceful and beautiful environment that is conducive to personal growth and development.
