Hands of Peace is a summer program in Glenview, Ill., that brings youth from all sides of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict together with American kids from Christian, Islamic and Jewish homes. The Middle Eastern teens receive year-round support to maintain connections when they return home. A trio of congregations (Jewish, Muslim and Christian) founded the camp, which is supported by private donations. Contact Julie Kanak, executive director.
