Jewish Youth for Community Action (JYCA) is a program created and led by youth working towards progressive social change within a framework of Jewish values.
Our vision is to educate, empower, and inspire young Jewish activists by building a community based on trust, respect, and cooperative process.
In this safe environment we are able to use a Jewish perspective to examine ourselves and the world, inspiring greater political, social and cultural awareness.
