Seaboard Region USY Chapter of Excellence
B’nai Israel’s Carl and Doris Lane Youth Department is the place to be! Our mission is to connect all school-age children to the synagogue through a variety of social, Judaic, and community-service programs. We build friendships, leadership skills, and a positive Jewish identity. Our experienced youth advisors and dedicated youth committee aim to provide a unique experience for each child in order to create a lifelong connection to B’nai Israel.
