Welcome

Where every teen belongs

CTeen Brownstone Brooklyn is a community of Jewish teens who show up for each other. We hang out, we volunteer, we celebrate Shabbat and the holidays, and we figure out what it means to live proudly as a Jew today.

No membership test, no prior knowledge needed. Come as you are — you'll leave with friends. Am Yisrael Chai!

What we're about

Friendship without judgment. Real conversations about identity and purpose. Trips, parties, and hands-on chesed projects across the city — backed by a network of 200,000 teens worldwide who have your back.

This one's for you

Two ways in, depending on your grade.

CTeen High School

The big leagues

Start early

7th & 8th grade

A first taste of the CTeen family — fun events, new friends, and a crew to grow up with before high school even starts.

What the teens are saying

In their words

The reason we do this.

I came to one Thursday night not knowing a single person. Now these are the people I text first when something good happens.

Eli R.

11th Grade

CTeen is the one place where being Jewish isn't something I explain — it's just who we all are. That changed how I walk around school.

Maya F.

10th Grade

I figured a teen group would be cheesy. It's the opposite. The conversations actually go somewhere and nobody's pretending.

Ari L.

12th Grade

My favorite part is the chesed trips. We're not just talking about doing good — we're out there doing it on a Sunday morning.

Talia B.

9th Grade

The Shabbaton in the city was the best weekend of my year. Thousands of teens and somehow it still felt like family.

Dovid S.

11th Grade
