Why now

Since October 7, young Jews have new questions and too few places to ask them.

Many teens and young adults are asking about their identity, their heritage and their connection to the Jewish people for the first time. They look for answers on their phones, and that’s where Jewish learning needs to be.

Who am I, as a Jew?

What’s true about Israel?

What do I do when it gets tense?
