Teen Programs
Do what you love…and spark something!
Whether it’s a one-time gathering or a year-long experience, 4Front provides teens grades 9-12 with creative and inspiring opportunities to discover who they are, what they care about, and what they’re capable of. Rooted in Jewish values and narrative, 4Front’s opportunities are carefully crafted and executed to help teens recognize their role and responsibility to be change makers in this world.
