Young People Organizing

Will we SHOW up FOR CLIMATE ACTION, oR stay silent while billionaires and fossil fuel CEOs push us closer to a hotter, more unlivable future? 

Dayenu’s young people community is made up of a wide range of activists, from students fighting for liberation and systemic change on their college campuses to young adults taking action for climate justice in the cities and communities where they live and work.

Are you a young person looking to get activated climate in your community? Check out our upcoming events, follow us on social media, and sign up for mailing list to plug into all community, solidarity, and movement-building work.

MEET OUR YOUNG PEOPLE ORGANIZER

Rocky Stern is an environmental justice organizer and revolutionary based out of Lenapehoking (NJ/NYC). Before Dayenu, Rocky was involved in student activism at the University of Oregon, and was a leader of the Coalition Against Environmental Racism and Jewish Voice for Peace until her graduation in 2024 with a B.S. in Philosophy and Environmental Studies.

Professionally, Rocky has worked with many organizations, such as the Coalition for Food and Health Equity, Willamalane Parks and Recreation District, Environment New Jersey, the USDA Agricultural Research Service, and the United Synagogue of Hoboken.

When they’re not organizing, you can find Rocky gardening, at a live show with friends, or crocheting with her cats.
