AKLA (Achla - adj. meaning awesome) is a FREE, five-week fellowship for Jewish teens ages 12–14
in Los Angeles, designed to deepen Jewish identity and pride through interactive exposure to Jewish achievement in technology, medicine, security, and media. Perfect as a pre- or post-B’nai Mitzvah program, AKLA empowers the next generation of Jewish leaders by connecting them with trailblazing Jewish professionals, innovators, and changemakers.
Each session offers a dynamic mix of inspiring guest speakers, hands-on workshops, and deep Jewish learning in a supportive, fun environment. Teens leave with a stronger connection to their Jewish heritage—and a clearer sense of how they can shape the future.
Applications open now. Group applications from synagogues, day schools, and youth organizations are welcome. Check out our application page for details.
