MISSION STATEMENT

AKLA creates proud Jews by educating teens about the world’s most accomplished Jewish successes and innovations. Through immersive, experiential learning across diverse fields—from technology and humanitarian impact to culture, security, and global innovation—AKLA empowers teens to discover pride in their heritage and the relevance of Jewish values in today’s world. 

VISION

Teens will work with AKLA’s leading partner organizations in high tech, medicine, security, arts and remembrance. They will be exposed to innovative and inspiring ways to look at their Jewish identity, and how they too can  incorporate that understanding into their own lives and the greater Jewish community. The program also  highlight Israel’s myriad cutting-edge achievements, thereby allowing the participants to forge a deeper connection to Israel and take pride in our homeland.
