Tribe 12 connects 20s / 30s to Jewish life and community in Philadelphia. 

We are here to engage 20s/30s adults who have a Jewish connection in our city. We are here to enrich their experiences, build community, and help them sustain a Jewish life long into the future.

For the majority of our constituents, their relationship with being Jewish is complicated and evolving. 20s/30s cannot be told what to do or what to believe—it has to be natural, self learned, and affirmed by trusted peer networks. Tribe 12 acts as a guide for those willing to walk with us, especially because we believe there is no right way to be Jewish—it is a personal path and each one is unique. Tribe 12 wants people to choose to walk that Jewish path for themselves. 

We believe that the path is a progression from engagement—the initial steps, often in starts and stops—to Jewish connection; through enrichment when a person makes a conscious choice to do something Jewish that requires commitment and higher level Jewish thought; to empowerment when a person has transcended partaking in Jewish behaviors that can be turned on and off, to a state when Judaism is consciously and unconsciously integrated into the essential components of their life—partner, peers, place, profession, and purpose.
