Newish & Jewish?

Are you looking to expand your circle of friends and meet like-minded individuals in the Miami area? Whether you’re a recent college grad or a more established professional, Federation’s Young Leadership Division (YLD) is offering a unique opportunity to connect with your peers through Newish and Jewish. Participants gather in pods of no more than 15 people to unwind, make new friends and create community in a social space, such as a bar or restaurant. Pods, including the newly created Pride Pod and Couples Pod, will meet three times and attendance is expected at all of the gatherings on Wednesday, March 1; Thursday, March 30; and Thursday, May 4. Even if you have already participated in the program, you can join us again — new year, new pod! For more information and to register by the Monday, February 20 deadline, click here.
