Mission

Our mission at Mikva Challenge is to develop youth to be empowered, informed, and active citizens who will promote a just and equitable society.

About

Policy-making program - Mikva Challenge works with students and public officials to facilitate youth policy councils that help city leaders create and implement more effective public policy in regards to youth. Using our 'think tank' summer process, young people research intensively a current issue or problem facing a city department or leader (i.e. the mayor, the health commissioner, the superintendent of schools) and create policy recommendations on this topic. The policy solutions are then discussed with the key decision maker and together the youth and adult partner work on implementing some of the policy recommendations.
