EDJY – Your High School Youth Group!

EDJY (the East-bay Division of Jewish Youth) is your local 9th-12th grade youth group! We’re a chapter of NFTY, the North American Federation of Temple Youth, which is the teen movement of the Union for Reform Judaism. We welcome any 9th-12th grade teens in the area, although we specifically serve Congregation Beth Emek in Pleasanton and Congregation Shir Ami in Castro Valley. Our awesome, spectacular, fun-filled events range from movie nights, social action programs, teen services, and most importantly, schmoozing with friends. We welcome and encourage new members. If you would like more information, to add a teen to our outreach list, or to volunteer as a chaperone, please email us at EDJYyouth@bethemek.org. You can also find us on Facebook, contact our advisor, Deborah Braunstein, or any member of the board, listed below.
