About the Bureau
The Bureau of Jewish Education cultivates Jewish pride, participation and leadership in Southern California teens.
We celebrate the fact that almost 10,000 Jewish youth in Orange County have experienced at least one of our youth programs, and religious school teachers and principals engage in formal Jewish study for a minimum of 16 hours each year. Not surprisingly, we have earned a reputation as one of the most innovative bureaus in the country. We are a partner agency of Orange County Jewish Federation and Family Services.
The hallmarks of the Bureau are:
- Quality Youth Programs designed to explore Jewish identity and to train teen leaders
- Warm and welcoming Jewish learning opportunities for all ages
- A unifying force for Jewish education in Orange County
