Young Adults

Artists. Entrepreneurs. Travelers. Social Change Makers. You are not one thing, and neither are we.

One of our greatest challenges is to make sure young adults are part of the Jewish community of tomorrow. That’s why we offer them ways to experience Jewish life that are compelling, inspiring, fun and meaningful today. Below is a sampling of our programs that take young adults to Israel, build leadership skills, connect them with others, and offer new opportunities to “do Jewish” where they live, work, and play.

Visit NuRoots to learn more about infinite opportunities for young adults in their 20s and 30s to redefine what it means to be Jewish in L.A.
