About SIACH For 35 years, and with over 18,000 alumni, the Alexander Muss Institute for Israel Education (AMIIE) has led the field in providing amazing and transformative Israel experiences. Students who participate in our programs develop deep and long-lasting connections to Jewish life, to the Jewish people, and to Israel while having the time of their lives. Building upon our success, the Alexander Muss Institute has developed SIACH, a one-year program for recent high school graduates.  SIACH -- Hebrew for "dialogue" -- provides an opportunity for students to explore the richness of classical and contemporary Jewish sources and the many dimensions of Israel and discover -- through discussion and dialogue -- the relevance of both to their lives.  SIACH II will open in September 2008 and run until the middle of June 2009.  Applications are now being accepted.   Grants Now Available to All SIACH Participants! All SIACH participants will receive significant grants of up to $2000 from the MASA-Israel Journey initiative and are eligible for additional financial support on a need basis.  Read more here.  SIACH - Explore Judaism, experience Israel, discover yourself.
