New to the Community?

If you are new to Seattle or YLD, we would like to invite you to coffee with one of our kind souls from the Welcoming Committee! The Welcoming Committee is here too make sure everyone looking to connect to the Seattle Jewish community is able to find their place. They can tell you more about the federation, YLD and other local Jewish young adult activities.

We know that is can be hard to go to an event if you don't know anyone, so this would be a perfect opportunity to meet get to know a friendly face.

If you want to set up a coffee date, send a email to YLD@Jewishinseattle.org, subject coffee date and a little about yourself or call (206) 443-5400 to speak with YLD Director, Cameron.
