The National Council of Young Israel, established in 1912, is a prominent organization that serves the broader Jewish community. With over 25,000 member families and approximately 150 branch synagogues across the United States, Canada, and Israel, the Council takes a leading role in addressing important issues facing the Jewish community in North America and Israel, while promoting Americanism and Zionism through the lens of Torah-true Judaism.
The organization aims to foster and maintain spiritual, cultural, social, and communal activities that advance and perpetuate traditional Torah-true Judaism. It also seeks to instill in American Jewish youth an understanding and appreciation of the ethical and spiritual values of Judaism, demonstrating the compatibility of the ancient faith of Israel with good Americanism. Through cooperation among its constituent branches, the Council acts as a federated and central body for the Young Israel Movement, making its influence felt and recognized in America and around the world.
