Jewish Community Center of Chicago
Bringing Jewish Values to Life! There is no other place like JCC where the level of energy and excitement created by bringing Jewish values to life is so evident. For 105 years, our bold, creative vision has fostered universal Jewish values and strengthened our community through dynamic life-enriching experiences. JCC ensures that all of our programs—from early childhood, to our year-round children’s programs, to summer camps, to our adult programs—embody the agency’s commitment to preserve and enrich Jewish life. This passion for building a rich, meaningful Jewish life can be seen in an early childhood class where children are introduced to living within Jewish time, or in the tzedakah (charity) projects in our day camps where campers feel the joy and responsibility of making their community a better place, or at JCC’s Camp Chi where campers learn about modern Israel, or in our year-round children and adult programming where Jewish tradition and values are emphasized.
Every part of JCC is experienced through a Jewish lens. For thousands of children, teens and adults, JCC matters because we help them live their lives as Jews.
