About Us

Founded in Fall 2014, Manhattan Region is BBYO’s newest community! Open to all Jewish teens in grades 8-12, BBYO Manhattan is the fastest-growing Jewish teen leadership movement in Manhattan! With more than 600 chapters worldwide, Aleph Zadik Aleph (AZA) and B’nai B’rith Girls (BBG) offer teens a place to grow as individuals and be part of something larger than themselves. BBYO creates leaders and friendships through AZA (male-identifying teens), BBG (female-identifying teens), and BBYO (all-gender) chapters, and is an international movement of more than 80,000 teens. 

Manhattan region comprises 8 local chapters (and growing!) and engages over 500 teens through meaningful Jewish programming. BBYO Manhattan offers a wide array of activities - social, community service, and leadership development - all with Jewish teens leading the way! BBYO is teen-led and staff-run, meaning that YOU get a say in planning and executing programs. There is truly something for everyone in Manhattan BBYO.

Manhattan Region has the unique perk of all chapters being in the same geographic area, allowing all 500+ members to hold events together, build friendships, and cultivate a close-knit community. By becoming members of the Manhattan Region, teens experience local chapter programming, community service days, weekend-long conventions, and world-class summer programs. Now is a great time to get involved!
