Our chapter of the International United Synagogue program for 9th through 12th graders.

 

The core of USY programming is the "Kinnus," or convention. At a USY Kinnus, all synagogue USY chapters in our division or region participate, allowing our young people to meet other young Jews in our area and assisting them in developing "Jewish friendship networks" which will last a lifetime.
