The Yeshiva of the Telshe Alumni (YTA) is an American Orthodox Jewish organization. It was founded in 1971 by alumni of the Telshe Yeshiva in Cleveland, Ohio. The organization's stated goals are "to promote and maintain the ideals and principles of the Telshe Yeshiva and its unique approach to Torah study; to perpetuate the memory of the Telshe Yeshiva and its illustrious leaders; and to provide financial support for the Telshe Yeshiva and its institutions."
The YTA has been described as "one of the most influential and controversial organizations within American Orthodoxy." The organization has been criticized by some for its alleged "rigidity" and "intransigence." Others have praised the YTA for its "unwavering commitment to Torah study and Jewish tradition."
The YTA publishes a quarterly journal, The Telshe Alumni Journal, which features articles on Jewish law, Talmud, and Hasidism. The organization also sponsors an annual conference, which features lectures by leading Orthodox scholars.
The YTA provides financial support to the Telshe Yeshiva and its institutions. In addition, the YTA has established scholarships and fellowships for students at the Telshe Yeshiva.
