The North American Federation of Temple Youth (NFTY) is a democratic organization run by Jewish youth, for jewish youth. Twice a year, the youth leaders of NFTY come together to elect a new North American board, decide on study and action themes for the coming year, and introduce and debate other resolutions that help guide and shape NFTY on a North American level. On Febrauary 17th-20th, each of the 19 NFTY regions will send a maximum of 4 voting delegates to NFTY's mid-year board meeting, Veida. The region's delegates are traditionally, but not always, members of that region's board.
I'm not going to Veida. I'm not on my Regional Board. What can I do? Why do I care?
STAY INFORMED!
The delegates from each region act as representitive votes of their region's best interests. It is your power and responsiblity to informyourself what decisions are being made on your behalf and inform your representitives what you prefer. The resolutions and study and action theme proposals will all be placed on this site for your review, and each candidate for North American Board will have information about themselves and their platform here as well. Stay informed, and help NFTY move forward with vision and purpose!
