JEWISH LIFE
What’s the "J" in the JCC?
-
Respect (Kavod)
-
Community Responsibility (Kol Yisrael Arevim Zeh Bazeh)
-
Love Your Neighbor, as You Love Yourself(V’ahavtah L’Reiecha Kamocha)
-
Solidarity (Al Tifrosh Min Hatsibur)
Judaism is our foundation and the guide we use to create a positive and peaceful environment for everyone. The responsibility that we have to be part of community and to take care of one another. Kindness, concern and compassion. These values and others form the base of all our programming.
This JCC has served the Greater New Haven area for more than 100 years. We have a rich Jewish heritage, but first we're a center for the whole community. You belong here!
