Leaders for Tomorrow (LFT) is American Jewish Committee’s (AJC) seven-month cohort-based education and advocacy program for Jewish high school students. The programs aims to prepare teens with advocacy skills, increased content knowledge about Israel and antisemitism, confidence discussing these issues, and strengthened Jewish identities. This report describes LFT participants in the 11 AJC regions and one national virtual cohort offering the program in 2024-25. To measure growth and change over time, the study examined participants’ views and knowledge prior to beginning the LFT program and at the end of the program.
