Young Judea will become an independent entity after decades of operating under the wing of Hadassah, it was announced on Friday.
Members of the Zionist youth movement in a joint statement with Hadassah, the Zionist Women’s Organization of American, welcomed the decision.
“The alumni of Young Judea are proud that Hadassah’s national board voted this week to help the movement become independent,” said Michael Berman, a member of Young Judea’s board of directors. “With the leadership and support of Hadassah, Young Judea will have the tools it needs to grow and strengthen.”
