Teens Tell All

“I like being able to do things with other Jewish teens. I like being in a group with other teens that share common things with me. Being at the EVJCC, I can feel connections with other people that are Jewish. Whether or not we’re friends, we have an automatic connection.” – A.W.

“From toddler to teen, I grew up at the J. This is a place I can call my second home! I
started at 2 years old and now I’m a Counselor in Training. I love spending time with the kids and now I get to work with the same people I have grown up with!”
– R. M.

“With BBYO, I have a lot of Jewish friends. My EVJCC friends and I  can discuss many things we have in common outside of school. And when I’m with my Jewish friends at the EVJCC, it makes me feel like I have a home and a safe place to talk about religion.” – E.D.

“I’ve loved my time at EVJCC Camp. It’s like the whole community is there and you’re altogether and everyone is so happy. It’s my favorite thing to be with everyone – little kids, too. Even if you don’t know the words to the camp songs, you sway with everyone and feel connected.”
– D.Z.

“There’s something about just being at the EVJCC, being with other Jews and other Jewish teenagers – there’s something just so welcoming. It’s such a powerful community and it’s just so comfortable – I feel like it’s warmer than just the average teenagers!” – P.B.
