About Us
Be you, boldly
In our incredibly diverse and accepting community…
all kids—no matter their race, sexual orientation, gender identity, family structure, or Jewish background—are more than welcomed. They’re celebrated!
We encourage each teen to explore our traditions and today’s world
to discover what being Jewish means to them.
Steeped in Jewish tradition and connected to a community that is both historic and global, Judaism is alive and breathing for us at Havaya, engaging and evolving with our growing world.
Meet our friend, Howie Bee!
Bee-longing.
Bee-having.
Bee-ing part of a community.
Bee-ing your best self.
At Havaya, we stand up for ourselves and our friends, take responsibility for our actions, and understand the part each of us plays in creating a joyful and welcoming community. We call this “How We Be” – and Howie is always there to remind us to bee our best selves.
