ABOUT US
Roots are the strength you can’t see. NuRoots sparks relationships and experiences for young adults in our 20s and 30s, building vibrant community and reimagining Jewish expression.
THE HEART OF
JEWISH L.A.
As the young adult initiative of Jewish Federation Los Angeles, NuRoots is part of a broader vision to empower Jewish life: guided by values, fueled by innovation, and grounded in community partnerships.
OUR VISION
We do this work with deep belief in the power of community and a multifaceted and inclusive approach to Jewish engagement, meeting people where they are and helping them discover where they want to go. We believe Jewish identity is complex and personal, and that community should reflect that.
Through one-on-one coffees, gatherings, immersive experiences in Los Angeles and abroad, expansive partnerships, and multi-day citywide festivals, NuRoots is L.A.’s home for curiosity, creativity, and connection.
DRIVEN BY
RELATIONSHIPS
People are at the heart of everything we do. Start with a coffee with one of our Community Creators so we can welcome you personally.

CITYWIDE FESTIVALS
NuRoots’ multi day festivals have become L.A. traditions: Collective Escape, Sweet Return, Infinite Light. Reimagining Passover, the high holidays, and Hanukkah, each one creates culture and community, tells a story, expresses an emotion, opens the window of imagination.
