Who are we?

Chaverim means “Friends.” We foster connections between Jewish friends.

Gesher means “Bridge”. The bridge from childhood to teenager. 

AAUSY is our local chapter of United Synagogue Youth (USY), the youth movement of the United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism (USCJ). USY empowers Jewish youth to develop friendships, leadership skills, a sense of belonging to the Jewish People, and a commitment to inspired Jewish living through meaningful and fun experiences.

Please note: We want as many of our youth to be able to participate as possible. Scholarships are always available; no child will be turned away due to financial circumstances. Our Youth Commission team is here to help with any needs you may have.

Please email Hillai Amar, at edcoordinator@caa-austin.org for any requests and questions.
