Welcome!

Thank you for visiting Bais Menachem on the web.

Bais Menachem was founded first and foremost as an alternative to the mainstream Yeshiva system, for teenage boys who are struggling in that setting. However, over the years we have become much more than that.

Bais Menachem is a community organization serving Jews throughout Wilkes-Barre, PA and the greater Wyoming Valley. We offer many services and programming for Jews of all ages.

Our alumni are an integral part of our success as an institution. Many support us financially, while many others give back to a place that they once called home by returning for a year as mentors to our younger students. But all our alumni know that from the time they first stepped over the threshold at Bais Menachem they became a part of the Bais Menachem family.

Please take some time to browse this site and learn what it is that makes Bais Menachem the great institution that it is.
