The Union for Reform Judaism has launched the first issue of the Journal of Youth Engagement as part of their Campaign for Youth Engagement. The Journal of Youth Engagement is a forum of ideas and dialogue for those committed to engaging youth in vibrant Jewish life and living.
The journal aims to become the address for serious conversations about youth work, as other youth workers, camp professionals, parents, educators, rabbis and others feel empowered to share their stories. It is to provide a forum for sharing best principles and discussing the latest data research in the field.
The articles in the first issue are:
-
