Teens

"This group means the world to me, and I always get excited when I know I am going to see everyone. It is a group of people who you can be honest around with no judgement, who you can laugh with easily and freely, who you can be serious with and gain respect for each other, all the while incorporating Judaism into everything"
~ Nola Busansky, 10th grade

"I love the group because we all bring a little to the table, and work really well together. We're always laughing and having fun while also doing what we love to help out communities around us! Everyone is open to listening and no one is there to judge. The environment we've created is amazing!"
~Rebecca Swersey, 10th grade

The teen group begins its third year this fall with a group of 9th and 10th grade students. We meet monthly dividing our time between guest facilitated sessions and meetings with just the group. Based on our time together last year, we have decided to pursue several self defense classes, take a day trip to Mayyim Chayyim in Newton, continue our community service work, sex education and media literacy endeavors.
