Officials said, "The Shlichim (Cultural Emissary) Program is run by the Jewish Agency for Israel and facilitates a cultural exchange between Israeli and Diaspora Jews.
Shlichim are Israeli young adults who travel to North America to work in Jewish summer camps and local communities. The program aims to increase Jewish awareness, knowledge, and pride, and promote an understanding of Israel and its ideals. The visiting shlichim are currently serving the Nashville and Richmond communities, in addition to Ofer Musan who continues to serve in Chattanooga."

“The Jewish Federation of Greater Chattanooga is proud to be part of this program for over 13 years. During these years we have brought young adults from very diverse backgrounds to Chattanooga for a period of one to two years. They visit churches, schools and community organizations in addition to participating in key parts of the Jewish community,” said Michael Dzik, president and CEO.
