YAD TribeQuest 2015: Exploring Modern Jewish Individuality and Community

Join us for YAD's new and innovative five-part enrichment series, TribeQuest! Together, we'll build community and reflect on the Bay Area Jewish landscape of yesterday and today –- and engage in meaningful dialogue about our hopes for the Jewish community of tomorrow.

Don't miss out on this robust series of dynamic speakers, great networking through group discussion and, of course, delicious food. TribeQuest kicks off Wednesday, March 11, and meets weekly on Wednesdays through April 15 (with a break for Passover) at various locations in downtown San Francisco. Whether you're brand new to YAD and San Francisco, or are a certified veteran and native, this program is an opportunity to broaden and deepen our Jewish connections while making long-lasting friendships with other Bay Area Jewish young professionals.
