Young Jews in St. Louis, Missouri, are breaking down barriers and fighting rising antisemitism by educating their peers about Judaism through the Student to Student (STS) program run by the Newmark Institute of Jewish Community Relations Council (JCRC) of St. Louis.
This year, the initiative has brought more than 100 Jewish high school students to classrooms across the St. Louis area to give presentations to more than 4,000 other teens on their lives as Jews, with topics ranging from their beliefs and customs to the State of Israel, among others.
