What is "Jews' Next Dor" (generation in Hebrew)?
Jews' Next Dor is Congregation Beth David's Young Adult Group (CBDYAG). It is an active community of Jewish 20 and 30 somethings centered in the South Bay. We enjoy multiple events per month, including celebrating holidays, social action, educational and, of course, social events around the Bay Area.
You don't have to be a member of Congregation Beth David to be part of our group or attend our events. Our community is comprised of singles and couples and is fully volunteer-run. We're partially subsidized by and associated with Congregation Beth David in Saratoga, Ca.
CBDYAG also serves as a resource for Young Jewish Life in the Bay Area. Don't miss out on all the fun being had! We look forward to meeting you at a future event.
