Announcing the 2021-2022 NFTY North American Board

Home » Announcing the 2021-2022 NFTY North American Board

On Sunday, March 7 we held our annual NFTY Asefah & Elections with over 100 teen leaders in attendance.  Fletcher Block, NFTY President, gave a powerful and important state of NFTY address to the teens inviting them to celebrate all that we have accomplished this year, and looking forward to what is comes next.  Our task forces shared the important work they are doing, including a proposal for sexual harassment training for all our teen leaders.  Finally, we elected the 2021-2022 NFTY North American Board.

I am excited to share newly elected 2020-2021 NFTY North American Board. These young people were chosen by their peers and their terms will formally begin when they are installed in June 2021.

Please join me in congratulating these fantastic leaders.
