WHAT IS J-TEEN?

Important Corona Virus Update: We will update the website when we have more information on upcoming summer and fall programs.  Please keep a look out for further communications! Click here to see all that J-Teen Leadership accomplished this year.

J-Teen Leadership is UJA Federation of NY's community service, leadership development program for Jewish high school students from all backgrounds and affiliations who want to make a difference in the world today. Through local programs and long distance service projects we provide a platform for teens to develop a collective voice, connect to other teens and become change agents in repairing the world. Check out our short video to see what the teens are saying about J-Teen Leadership!
