Our mission: Expand awareness of the beauty & joy of Yiddishkeit, and preserve & advance the Yiddish language and culture within the US and worldwide.
YAAANA has already become a trusted, popular destination to learn and engage with Yiddish culture. The physical home for YAAANA is Yiddishland California.
