Program Registration
Just before Ramadan of 2022, the Islamic Center of Pittsburgh revived the YANE program. The YA-NE program focuses on strengthening the youth’s foundation in Islamic knowledge and their relationships with each other and develops their leadership skills. In addition to lessons on Islam with weekly halaqas and fun learning activities, YA-NE participants will go on outside-of-the-masjid activity trips to a variety of fun places.
Participation is not limited to members of the ICP masjid. We encourage youth from all over the Pittsburgh area to join the program and strengthen the networking, and alliance section of the YANE program.
To aid in the expenses of food, material and preparation for the teen program, a fee will be required along with registration.
