Travel with the Young Leadership Division

From missions to Israel to conferences in some of America’s most exciting cities, the Young Leadership Division has your ticket for fun, informative and unforgettable experiences.

The Young Leadership Division participates every summer in The Jewish Federations of North America “National Young Leadership Mission to Israel,” as well as national conferences in the United States. Feel the energy and excitement of joining hundreds or thousands of like-minded people who are committed to helping those in need, both here and abroad.

Connect with Your Peers in Israel

How can one tiny country contain so many well-known sites and still have room for so many unexpected delights? Discover an Israel that is spontaneous and seductive by joining hundreds of people just like you from Miami and across North America on a fun, meaningful and life-changing experience.

Federation missions are the most exciting way to see Israel, either as a first-timer or as a seasoned visitor. Our action-packed itinerary usually includes a trip for Miami participants to visit one or both of the Greater Miami Jewish Federation's partnership communities – Yerucham in the Negev Desert and/or Pardes Channa-Karkur in northern Israel.

“Our trip to Israel was truly a bonding experience with the people and the country — and spirituality. If you’ve ever wanted to go back knowing what you know now, then visit Israel again! It surprised me in new ways, rekindled my enthusiasm for all things Jewish, and introduced me to new friendships that will last a lifetime.”
- Jonathan Broder
