We are delighted to welcome Yael and Sammy Beckerman as SSTC’s new Youth Directors. They bring tremendous experience to the role, coupled with excitement, dedication and great ambition to see the youth department flourish.

In this role he has worked extensively with teens in both public schools and Jewish day schools, providing impactful programming and events.

They just finished their third summer as staff at Camp Lavi where Sammy was a member of the chinuch team and Director of the Kadima Program, and Yael was the Head of Girls Campus.

Sammy grew up in Potomac, Maryland and after learning in Yeshivat HaKotel he attended Yeshiva University Sy Syms School of Business. Yael (nee Hausdorff) grew up in West Orange attending JKHA and RKYHS, after which she studied in Midreshet Moriah followed by Yeshiva University, Stern College for Women and Touro College, School of Health Sciences.
