Teen Summit on Israel and Antisemitism

In April 2025, over 200 teens and parents gathered in NYC for the Education to Action: Teen Summit on Israel and Antisemitism — a powerful day of learning, reflection, and empowerment. With inspiring voices like Matti Friedman, Adela Cojab, Montana Tucker, and Daniel Neutra, the event highlighted not only diverse perspectives but also the powerful stories shared by teens themselves.

We’re deeply grateful to our amazing partners, including Park Avenue Synagogue, for helping make this meaningful event possible!

Following the event, a group of teens including our National Mazkira, Nomi Gedzelman, came together to write a statement called “Voices Not Victims” — a statement that’s not just about what’s happening to us, but what we’re going to do about it. It’s a call for every Jewish teen to add their name, their story, and their voice — because we’re not just watching history unfold. We’re shaping it. And when we stand together, loud and proud, we’re not just honoring the past — we’re building the future. Read the statement here
