International Convention

BBYO Naples is thrilled to be heading to International Convention (IC) in Baltimore this February! An event that teens look forward to all year, IC has become an unparalleled convening — offering a powerful, strategic and inspiring platform from which the best and brightest teen and adult leaders from across the Jewish world (and beyond) unite to celebrate, dream and take action to continue strengthening the future.

BBYO has a full-service approach to accessibility and inclusion for all attendees. We are ready to welcome delegations from all our 60 countries. Signage and programming are offered in a variety of languages. American sign language interpreters are available, and all accommodations are made to warmly host guests of all abilities. BBYO strives to create a pluralistic environment where everyone can explore or express their Jewish identity. To that end, every consideration is taken regarding ritual, kashrut and Shabbat.

Teens at IC have the opportunity to take part in community service and social action, gain exclusive access to concerts featuring the likes of Steve Aoki, Surfaces and Tai Verdes, along with special panel moments hosted by teens with leaders in world politics and social justice champions alike.

Feel free to contact me with any questions about IC! There is still space available. BBYO Naples gathers biweekly for chapter programming. We’d be happy to share our calendar with you for the remainder of spring. Simply send an email to jesszimmerman@bbyo.org and we’ll be in touch.
