The Matan Institute is created and facilitated by Matan professional staff. Training sessions, webinars and mentoring are conducted by Matan staff, independent contractors and experts in the field of special education, change theory, community organizing, educational technology and more. All presenters and staff members are carefully vetted by Matan.

Regional Matan Institutes are usually, but not always, initiated by the local Jewish Federation or central agency. If you are a professional or lay leader and are interested in helping to make this happen, please contact us.

The Matan Institutes are geared towards directors and other community leaders who are in a position to affect change on a macro level. Individual circumstances will be considered on a case-by-case basis, so contact us to discuss further.

We are happy to answer your questions. Please contact Meredith Polsky, Senior Director of Programs and Partnerships at meredith@matankids.org
