Jewish Voices.
United by Values.
Rooted in Community.
Our Mission
We are a civic Jewish organization of Montclair that concerns itself with issues of Jewish interest, acting as a nexus for our community in fighting anti-Jewish bias, promoting Jewish social, cultural, and civic contributions to society, and fostering relationships with the greater Montclair community. Our guiding values promote pluralism, unity, human dignity, along with equal and civil rights.
