Rabbi AY Weinberg: Transforming Lives with Project Extreme

If you're not going to give them an adrenaline high experience right, then you're not going to reach them, and that's really important.
Imagine dedicating over three decades to transforming the lives of at-risk Jewish youth. That's exactly what Rabbi AY Weinberg has done. In this episode of 'BrainStorm with Sony Perlman', Sony chats with Rabbi Weinberg about his incredible journey and the impactful work of Project Extreme. Rabbi Weinberg’s story is one of dedication, hope, and a relentless drive to make a difference.
Before founding Project Extreme in 2001, he spent nearly two decades as the Regional Director for the Greater Midwestern Region of National Conference of Synagogue Youth (NCSY), where he developed a myriad of programs for unaffiliated Jewish teenagers. His approach? Building genuine relationships and offering adrenaline-packed experiences that resonate with these young people. Rabbi Weinberg highlights the power of unconditional love in the healing process and shares some of the challenges he faces in running such a dynamic program.
With a blend of humor and strict adherence to rules, Project Extreme has created countless success stories. If you're interested in learning how one man's vision can bring hope and change to an entire community, this episode is a must-listen.
