Young Judaea

4200 Biscayne Blvd Miami, Florida 33137

Young Judaea is the oldest Zionist youth movement in the United States. For more than 100 years, Young Judaea has brought together thousands of Jewish youth from across the country and around the world – of every religious, cultural and political persuasion, through a shared commitment to Jewish values, Jewish pride, and love of Israel.

With summer and year-round programs in both the US and Israel, from 3rd grade to college and beyond, Young Judaea is truly unique in its ability to offer a fun, safe, social environment that also includes a distinct focus on education, leadership, and social action. The result: generation after generation of strong Jewish leaders who are empowered to truly make a difference in their communities, and in the world – while meeting other Jewish youth to build friendships that last a lifetime. Are you ready to make an impact? Come join us.
