This is the story of Zev Yaroslavsky, the son of Ukrainian Jews who immigrated to the United States in the early 1920s. His memoir charts the journey of a young social activist who battled to free Soviet Jews before becoming one of the most consequential elected officials in Southern California. Fiercely independent, he combined an activist's passion with a seasoned politician's skill to challenge the region's power brokers.

Do you remember your first time? People tend to remember the moment they first heard The Rush Limbaugh Show on the radio. For Zev Chafets, it was in a car in Detroit, driving down Woodward Avenue.

The Zev Project begins with the story of Zev, a baby born at just 23 weeks gestation, which is under the current age of viability for sustaining life outside the womb. In it, we navigate the long and miraculous journey from Zev's birth through our time in the NICU. It is a story of survival, surrender, and hope. After sharing Zev's story, we aim to expand to include other stories of resilience and hope in order to provide encouragement and support for those who need to believe that the impossible is possible and that whatever today holds, it is not the end of the story.
