Encounters

The Y’s Encounters group is a monthly program that sets out to strengthen our community by working with a group of young Latino and Jewish adults ages 21-35, exploring issues of identity and social justice.

The goals of the program are to create a community of young adults that want to make the world a little better through social action.
