Who are We???
Seaboard Region USY spreads throughout all of Maryland, Virginia, the District
of Columbia, and northeastern North Carolina. Any synagogue that is affiliated
with the United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism can have a USY and Kadima
chapter.
Chapters meet regularly for a variety of activities, including social outings,
educational programs, and community service opportunities. The region sponsors
many programs throughout the year, including conventions, dances, and a
basketball league, which are coordinated between the Regional Youth Director and
the chapters.
