Start Young Judaea in your Community

If your community is missing the beauty of Young Judaea, we want to work together to bring the movement to you. Contact teens@youngjudaea.org to help spread Young Judaea.

Host an Info Session

Info sessions are great ways to share the opportunities and programs of Young Judaea’s Israel programs to youth and their parents who are searching for a true person-to-person interaction. From an in-home invitation to a coordinated program with our field representatives, you have the power to share the genuine impact that Young Judaea has. Please email us if you are interested in hosting an info session.

Plan a Reunion

Reminiscing with friends is a lot more fun than doing it alone! We want to help you plan reunions and gatherings for your shichva (age group), Year Course, or YJ alumni in your area. Contact our Development and Alumni Engagement Associate to get started at taylor.wishnov@youngjudaea.org.
