What the kids are saying…

  • Maya Simon, Teacher

    I enjoy being a part of Indianapolis YJP because of the welcoming environment, learning support, and community building.

  • John Bodur, CPA

    Being a part of YJP community has strengthened my Jewish heritage and overall sense of what it means to lead a Jewish life. Great organization to be a part of all around.

  • Ellen Voskoboynik, ER RN

    Through the events and connections I’ve made, I have developed a greater appreciation for my role as a Jewish professional and how I can use this as an asset in my workplace and community.

  • Will Smeltzer, Staffer Indiana House of Representatives

    YJP is an absolutely wonderful group. Every event is so well done and the opportunity to spend time with young, likeminded individuals with a shared cultural and religious heritage is priceless.

  • Rachel Birenbaum, Aide to Congresswoman

    “YJP has become my home away from home! When I moved Indianapolis with no family they gave me a place where I feel connected to my Jewish heritage and have a network of support and friends.”

  • Boaz Shachaf, Engineer

    YJP inspires and educates me. The effort put into events is very impressive; as a result people love to come. I highly recommend to join and see our vibrant community.
