Jewish Youth for Community Action hasn't added a story.
SUPPORT BAY AREA JEWISH YOUTH TODAY!
JYCA is a program created and led by youth to work towards progressive social change. We seek to educate, empower, and inspire political, social, environmental, and cultural awareness and action in young activists, guided by Jewish values of social justice.
We educate, empower, and inspire young activists through building a community based on trust, respect, and cooperative process. We use Jewish perspectives to examine ourselves and the world, inspiring greater political, social, environmental and cultural awareness and action.
CONTRIBUTE TO JYCA AND TRIPLE YOUR IMPACT!
Youth Wellbeing:
There has never been a harder time to be a teenager than right now. JYCA provides a safe and crucial community for youth to find personal and communal care. We provide a space for youth to discover and embody their most authentic selves. JYCA is an explicitly safe and supportive space for young Jews who identify as LGBTQ+ and/or JOCSM (Jews of Color, Sephardim and Mizrahim). JYCA staff serve as mentors and trusted adults in our youth's lives.
In response to the crisis in Israel and Palestine, we are focusing on taking care of our youth and building urgent solidarity.
We work to empower youth and understand the responsibility to take care of each other. Would you be able to donate to our Giving Tuesday campaign so we can continue providing crucial spaces like this?
Your contribution will support our youth and provide a safe and welcoming Jewish space!
Youth Leadership:
JYCA is unique in that it is truly youth-led. Our youth determine, develop, and facilitate their own socio-political education workshops. Our youth organize their own actions and lead in partnerships with other organizing groups. Our youth even sit on our board of directors and guide the course of our organization. At every level of JYCA, we are actively fighting against adultism (the oppression of youth, often resulting in the ignoring, silencing and dehumanizing of young people) and striving to empower youth to believe that they have the power to make a difference.
Your gift will provide unique youth-leadership opportunities that will help JYCA youth grow into the movement leaders of tomorrow!
Community Impact:
JYCA Youth are changing the world today! Last year, JYCA youth have led phone banking actions to Get Out the Vote in key swing states, led actions to support the displaced residents of Wood Street, and organized the community to fight against anti-LGBTQ legislation. While our youth are currently determining what the main campaign of the year will be, it is sure to be inspiring and impactful in the Bay Area.
Your support will power up our organizing and action efforts as we strive to have a positive impact in our community!
JYCA YOUTH ARE COUNTING ON YOU. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
