The Teen Department at the OFJCC offers fun, engaging events and programs created and led by teens, both middle school and high school age.

In addition to our calendar of diverse activities, events and trips, we offer enrichment classes, camps, community service volunteer opportunities, a Teen Center lounge area with arcade games, and an opportunity to join the OFJCC delegation in competing at the JCC Maccabi Games^® and Artsfest^®.

Our programs are infused with Jewish values and emphasize diversity, teamwork and skill development, connecting teens of all cultures to one another, the local community and the world.

We strive to develop strong identity and positive role models who are confident, creative, patient and respectful towards each others' differences. We understand the importance of creating a safe atmosphere and a culture where teens are able to grow and challenge themselves without fear of making mistakes.

Are you in high school and desire a meaningful sense of purpose and belonging? 

Join FACST: Fun, Active, Community, Service, for Teens, an array of diverse community service offerings mixed with social team building, fun activities and leadership opportunities. FACST allows teens to work together to make our community a stronger, more vibrant place to live. Each session will include a reflection and conversation that deepens participants' understanding of the Jewish values connected to the program. 

This program is part of the Jewish Teen Education and Engagement Initiative, with support provided by the Jewish Community Federation and Endowment Fund and the Jim Joseph Foundation.
