Beginning in the late 1940s, Orthodox synagogues across America created Jewish youth groups. In the Midwest, South, and Upstate NY, the groups began to cooperate with each other regionally. In 1954, Harold Boxer a”h convinced the Orthodox Union to create NCSY. Mr. Boxer’s hiring of Rabbi Pinchas Stolper in 1959 led to an intensified effort to create a national youth movement. Orthodox Union presidents Moses Feuerstein and Rabbi Joseph Karasick, and youth commission members Dr. Bernard Lander, Rabbi Ralph Pelcovitz and Rabbi Israel Wohlgelertner were among the member leaders who helped create the contemporary NCSY.

Below are some of the key figures in the founding of each region.

In the late 1960s, the Ostreichers returned to New York. Harry died in 2013 at the age of 91.

Central East
March 1965

Before Central East NCSY was officially created, teens across the Midwest — Ohio, Michigan, West Virginia, Kentucky, Indiana and Southern Ontario — organized informal youth groups. They would spread the word about events by mailing flyers and calling one another. As the cost started to rise, teens began asking synagogues for money to help. While some rabbi’s were extremely supportive of the idea, one rabbi in particular, Rabbi David Stavsky a”h of Congregation Beth Jacob in Columbus, OH, was extremely supportive and believed in the teens. He knew that Jewish teens needed organized programming where they could meet and gain support from one another. In late 1969, Rabbi Stavsky reached out to Rabbi Pinchas Stolper, NCSY’s national director, to hire a regional director for the area.

In February of 1970, a meeting was hosted by Rabbi Stavsky in Columbus, Oh, to interview Ivan and Arleeta Lener. The couple had been serving as the youth/education directors at a shul in Wilmington, Delaware.

Greater Chicago T.S.Y. – Traditional Synagogue Youth
May 1961

When NCSY began, only Orthodox congregations belonged to its youth movement. In Chicago, there were a number of large congregations which, though led by Orthodox rabbis, practiced a more traditional form of Judaism. Traditional Synagogue Youth (TSY) was another youth organization that merged with NCSY.

First Part-Time Director: Eric Rothner

As a teenager, Eric Rothner was an active member of his Bnei Akiva chapter. After returning from a year in Israel, Rothner, 20, was asked to become the first regional director for TSY.

He is a dedicated financial supporter and advocate of NCSY. He is the owner and CEO at Hunter Management and has four children and 12 grandchildren.

First Youth Commission Chairs:
Anne and Sy Okner a”h, Marce Glass a”h and Lenny Glass ybl”ch

In the early 1960s, there were a number of large traditional congregations with Orthodox rabbis, yet with little framework for youth involvement. The Okner and the Glass families stepped up to the challenge and created the first Traditional Synagogue Youth (TSY) chapter at Congregation Ezras Israel. TSY then expanded to many synagogues around Chicago. Later, with the encouragement of Rabbi Stolper, TSY merged with NCSY. Together, the Okner and Glass families gave endless amounts of time and energy to ensure that Jewish teens stayed connected to Judaism.

Today, the Midwest region still carries the legacy of the Okner and Glass families. The Midwest NCSY Winter Conclave was permanently named the Sy Okner Winter Conclave following the death of the Okners in 2008.

Heading an NCSY region was a natural fit for Blank, who had grown up running youth programs. Within one year, he helped to start 15 chapters in various synagogues across Montreal and Ottawa. As the region grew, and after serving for two years as the volunteer regional director, the position needed a full time director. Blank stepped aside from the role to pursue his business career, but served as chairman of the Youth Commission and then later on the Presidium of the newly created Eastern Canada Region of the UOJCA. Blank would later go on to work as an investment dealer. Today, Blank and his wife Gladys live in Jerusalem, Israel, and have three children and four grandchildren.
