This week, UJA-Federation of New York marked the 20th anniversary of its Commission on Jewish Identity and Renewal with a daylong conference at the charity’s Midtown headquarters. Responding to what was deemed as a crisis of Jewish continuity, the commission embarked on funding a spate of Jewish education and identity-building projects meant to shore up young people’s connections to Jewish life. Environmental and social-justice groups received funding, as did Kveller.com, a website devoted to young families.
