    • Discovering the Power of Love in NFTY Central West Region

      on November 2, 2018
      The “region of love” welcomed me warmly this weekend at their first event of the year, C-Dub Smash. NFTY CWR, for those who are unaware, is in their second year away from home, following the Bay Area fires that destroyed Camp Newman’s physical property last year.

    • Now is the time to show up, together.

      on October 30, 2018
      As members of NFTY, we know so personally what it means to grow up in a synagogue. We’ve sung Oseh Shalom on a Friday night, swaying back and forth with our arms around new friends; we’ve danced at late-night Saturday night socials in temple social halls; we’ve slept curled up in sleeping bags at youth group shul-ins; we’ve read the Torah for the first time with shaky knees and wobbly voices at our home congregations.

    • Teen-Adult Partnership: Two Halves that Make our Region Whole

      on October 24, 2018
      NFTY defines itself as a teen-led movement, for teens by teens, but behind every teen leader is an adult partner. Whether that adult is a parent, a youth advisor, a Rabbi or Cantor, or a regional Director, each youth-adult partnership has its own unique connection that helps it thrive.

    • LEADership, Community, and Traditions: My Weekend with NFTY-MAR

      on October 10, 2018
      I was so lucky to be welcomed into the NFTY-MAR community at their recent LEAD (Leadership Exploration and Development) event. I had the privilege of meeting so many participants and learning plenty of traditions from the Mid-Atlantic Region, known for its high energy and exciting programs.

    • 50% of GETY: How NFTY Helped Maintain my Judaism When My Temple Closed Its Doors

      on September 28, 2018
      Even though I resented the drive to Sunday School every week and dreaded having to add Thursdays to the equation once I reached the fourth grade, it was still my home. It may have rented space from a church and had only three religious school teachers, but the community was like a family.

    • How to Spark Teen-Adult Partnership

      on September 17, 2018
      You can learn an awful lot about the health of a youth group or a NFTY region by asking the president and advisor what they think of one another. You may hear that “my advisor is amazing – they really understand teens” or that “my president is so passionate and committed to our TYG.” Or you might hear “my advisor is always taking over” or “my teens don’t get their work done on time.”.
