Abstract:
Most emigre teens arrive in the United States feeling a strong connection to the Jewish people, and participation in Jewish programming in the San Francisco Bay area has had a dramatically positive impact on their Jewish identity. The success of programming for emigre teens provides a model for designing more effective programming for all Jewish teens, as well as for emigre young adults.
