Membership
Welcome to the IJC family - your Jewish "home away from home." The IJC is a warm and welcoming community, comprising individuals of all ages, and from many different backgrounds and nationalities.
With the support of our members, we provide a wide variety of dynamic programs: Shabbat services, Purim and Chanukah parties, a weekly Hebrew school, teen program, a Rosh Chodesh women’s group, Grandparents-on-loan, High Holiday services, a community seder, and more.
We support our members in times of loss, crisis or illness, and we celebrate together at times of joy. As a community, we contribute to tzedakah through food and clothing collections, and giving of our time to needy causes. Your membership strengthens our community in fulfilling its mission.
Membership is open to Jewish individuals and families that include a Jewish member. Membership fees are aimed at covering the costs of the IJC, including housing, the rabbinate, and administrative fees.
