Ramah Leadership Initiative

Ready to grow your professional network, sharpen your leadership skills, and stay meaningfully connected to Ramah? Were you in Nivo 2005-2016?

The Ramah Leadership Initiative (RLI) is for you! Cohort II will launch in Chicago in spring 2026.

The Ramah Leadership Initiative is an opportunity for participants to:

Deepen connections to Ramah
Gain insight into camp leadership and alumni impact
Learn from alumni across diverse fields
Expand professional networks
Build skills for career and community leadership

RLI is a cohort-based, multi-year engagement program designed to deepen relationships with young alumni while strengthening their long-term connection to Camp Ramah in Wisconsin. Over two years, participants will engage in a curated series of quarterly gatherings that foster leadership development, professional connection, and meaningful reflection on the Ramah experience.

Sessions are hosted by established Ramah alumni who share their professional journeys and explore how Ramah values and experiences have shaped their paths. Each cohort will last two calendar years (8 total cohort meetings).

Commitment

Ramah is committed to investing resources to make the program a success. RLI Cohort members will make the commitment to attend the cohort meetings and attempt to raise $1,800 annually within the framework of the December Alumni Impact Campaign and other related fundraising efforts over the course of the year. Camp Ramah will offer training and guidance to accomplish this objective.
