About YJP Palm Beach

YJP Palm Beach was founded by Palm Beach Synagogue in November 2015 to give Jewish adults in their 20s and 30s a real community on the island and in West Palm Beach: Shabbat dinners, holidays, learning, and friendships that last.

What started as a handful of young professionals around a Friday night table has grown into one of the most active young Jewish communities in the country. We host more than 200 events a year: First Fridays Shabbat dinners for 200 guests, five major holiday celebrations, the New Moon Circle for women, Sip & Study and L’Chaim Society learning, socials and game nights, volunteering through Stirring Up Kindness, and an annual summit. Our Instagram community is 3,500 strong, and thousands of people have walked through our doors since 2015.

YJP Palm Beach is led by Shneor and Malka Minsky and is a program of Palm Beach Synagogue, the Feuerstein Jewish Center, under Rabbi Moshe Scheiner. Our home base is the synagogue at 120 North County Road in Palm Beach, and we gather downtown at the Menorah Center on North Dixie Highway in West Palm Beach. Whether you just moved here, you’re visiting for the season, or you’ve lived in Palm Beach your whole life, there’s a seat for you.
