Union for Reform Judaism / Youth Division

The Youth Division of the Union for Reform Judaism seeks to provide a multitude of opportunities for Reform Jewish youth to engage in Jewish life in an experiential and comprehensive manner.

Whether through Camp, Junior Youth, Youth Initiative, High School Youth, NFTY, Israel, or College programs and experiences, the Union's Youth Division provides a range of programs that serve our youth at all stages of their growth and development.

These programs function on a local, regional, and North American level enabling our participants to interact with other Reform Jewish youth to further their commitment to their home community and to the Reform Movement.
