Motivations, Misconceptions, and Missed Opportunities in Engaging Today's Jewish Teens
Today’s Jewish teens care deeply, but parents and stakeholders often misunderstand what matters to them. Explore the gap between what teens want and what the Jewish community offers. Through discussion and interactive activities, we’ll examine teen motivations, adult misconceptions, and identify missed opportunities. Leave the workshop with insights to foster authentic connection with your teens.
Outcomes:
- Educators/engagement professionals will evaluate organizational misconceptions about teen engagement and their impact on participation.
