Our Mission

The home away from home at UCLA

Hillel at UCLA's mission is to be the home away from home at UCLA for all Jewish students to build their identities through Jewish life, learning, and Israel.

Through the creation of meaningful Jewish experiences, our goal is to discover each student's needs and, through these pursuits, provide energizing opportunities to embrace Judaism - now and for a lifetime. Our six key program areas build a community anchored by Jewish values: Leadership, Social Action, Jewish Learning, Israel, Shabbat & Holidays, Culture & The Arts.
