About Central Region West
BBYO Central Region West comprises 19 chapters on the Peninsula and throughout the South and East Bays, representing over 950 Jewish teens in our area. By becoming a member of Central Region West, teens are afforded the opportunity to experience local programming in their communities, regional programming such as dances, community service days, sports events, and weekend-long conventions, and international programming at large-scale conferences and BBYO Summer Experiences.
Our chapters hold events every weekend at locations around the region. Events are planned by teens, for teens and programming ranges from fun activities like ice skating and camping overnights, to communal Shabbat celebrations and leadership trainings. A parent, advisor, or regional staff member is always on hand to ensure safety and health.
Fun Fact: The first permanent chapter of BBG was organized in San Francisco in the year 1927.
Through teen-led and staff-supported programs, BBYO Central Region West gives our members opportunities to develop leadership skills and positively affect their communities, the world, and themselves. We constantly strive to provide more Jewish teens with more meaningful Jewish experiences each and every day, so that they may become the future Jewish leaders in their communities and in the Jewish world at large.
