Partnership2Gether - known as “P2G” - connects Jewish communities within Israel and Jewish communities around the world, including here in Chattanooga and the Southeast.

Last month, members of the Jewish Federation of Greater Chattanooga traveled to Israel through the P2G program.

Michael Dzik is the Federation’s executive director. Lorri Lipski is its director of social services.

More from them this week here on “Scenic Roots.”
