No’ar Hadash (Hebrew for "New Youth") is the youth group at the Kehillah. It is geared towards teens in 8th-12th grades. Each school year, these teens will have the opportunity to participate in approximately 10 programs that will be a mix of social, educational and social action programs. Some examples programs are: pizza and movie night at the Kehillah, schmooze with the rabbi (on a topic interesting to a teen), organizing recycling at the Kehillah and participating in a Kehillah-wide Mitzvah Day.

No’ar Hadash is the national Reconstructionist youth movement that promotes and fosters innovative and fun Jewish youth programming from a uniquely Reconstructionist perspective. Because it is a national movement, teens have the opportunity to participate in regional and national conventions and camps.

This youth group provides innovative, exciting, creative, fun, and engaging programs designed to meet teens’ religious, intellectual, spiritual, and social needs. By participating in this group, teens remain connected to the Kehillah and to their peers, learn Jewishly, engage in social action activities and are a part of the community.
