EIDAN Youth Movement

EIDAN Youth Movement
at the JCCGV
Sept 13, 2008 - June 13, 2009.

Every Saturday from 3-6pm

EIDAN is the JCCGV's Youth Movement led by graduates of the EIDAN School of Madrichim.
EIDAN encompasses children's group activities (peulot) while inspiring Jewish Journeys and social ties within the movement and beyond into our community.
EIDAN includes informal education, physical activity, and creative arts fostering Jewish identity and a strong connection to Israel.

What is a Youth Movement?
A youth movement allows children and youth to reach their full potential in a healthy, social, purposeful, fun and thoughtful setting. Without involvement in a youth movement, children and youth miss out on growing together while learning useful tools which cultivate involved community leaders and healthy adults.

EIDAN Grades 3-7
Join us for group games, sports, drama, shira (singing) and much more.
Each grade is formed into its own group.

TEVA teens will enhance ecological intelligence within Judaism by immersing teens into structured activities to sensitize them to nature's rhythms. By doing so, we will genuinely repair the world (Tikun Olam), build community, foster personal growth and progress into a higher appreciation of our world while building social ties and commitment to global issues.
TEVA teens will participate in groups where they enhance their interpersonal skills to create an advanced sense of self awareness to be able to make decisions best for them when faced with "risky" issues, normal to the teen years.
