We provide culturally sensitive support to Teen 'Pathfinders' (ages 16+)  — young Jewish people who are navigating the complexities of religious questioning and personal growth. 

Teen Pathfinder Peer Support Group

This confidential peer group is for young people questioning their religious identity and navigating family and community pressures. It aims to empower Jewish youth to find their own path — guided by two expert child psychologists.
