What: ATID (pronounced "AH-TEED," meaning “future” in Hebrew) is a vibrant program Designed for Jewish children in kindergarten through 5th grade. Rooted in Jewish values, ATID offers a meaningful and joyful experience that helps children grow individually while becoming part of a strong, connected youth Jewish community.

Creating Community: ATID is more than a program—it’s a place where children build lasting friendships and feel a true sense of belonging. Through shared experiences over several months, children develop connections with their peers and deepen their Jewish identity in a warm, inclusive environment.

Program Details: Participants enroll for the full series to gain the full impact of community-building and engagement. Sessions are filled with fun, creativity, and Jewish learning, all designed to help children explore who they are and how they connect to their heritage. 

Bi-Monthly Gatherings: On Saturday afternoon, as Shabbat transitions into Havdalah, children gather for three hours of connection and discovery. Guided by experienced youth leaders, they explore Jewish values through music, conversation, food, play, and art—laying the foundation for a vibrant and joyful Jewish future, together.

When:
Saturdays, 4:30-7:30 pm.
