Page "North American Federation of Temple Youth" Paragraph 6

In 1983, NFTY reintroduced the NFTY Convention in Washington, DC.

Every other year on President's Day weekend, hundreds to thousands of Reform Jewish teenagers gather for study, prayer, music, and socializing in a major North American city.

A youth advisor's professional training conference was added to run concurrently in 1999 with a youth clergy track added in 2001.

Convention typically alternates between the East and West coast.
