Kadima (youth group)
Kadima is a youth group affiliated with the United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism, specifically aimed at Jewish preteens living in North America in Grades 6–8. Every USCJ-affiliated synagogue is entitled to a Kadima chapter.
Kadima serves as a "feeder" into United Synagogue Youth, the primary USCJ youth group, aimed at Jewish high-school-aged youth.
Kadima may have been founded by Rabbi Leon S. Lang at Oheb Shalom Congregation in Newark, New Jersey, between 1927 and 1939.
