Introducing the Jewish Abilities Alliance and our Special Needs Navigator
Based on the presentation made during the Community Shark Tank, we are proud to announce the Jewish Abilities Alliance (JAA) online resource. It will assist families in finding the programs and services they need for their loved ones with different abilities, strengthening their connection, and enabling them to more fully participate in their communities.
Please check out the new resource that will help individuals and their families go through life's transitions with the help of support groups, workshops, and programs and enable sharing of resources across agencies, schools and places of worship.
As part of this initiative, the Federation is proud to announce the hiring of Jennifer Arey as the Special Needs Navigator. Jen is available to help connect families to all of the resources available from our vast network of special needs community partners and local Jewish organizations. Jen can be reached at 856.673.2554 or jarey@jfedsnj.org

Young Jewish leaders see different side of Israel during OnBoard mission
Cherry Hill resident Alison Shapiro’s trip to Israel five years ago was everything she had hoped and expected of a first visit to the Jewish homeland. Her love of the land intensified while hiking to the top of Masada, floating on the Dead Sea, and davening at the Wall.
Her second trip in February, however, was nothing like that one.
As one of six South Jersey residents on a mission meant to expose lay leaders to Israel’s innovative non-profit organizations, she met people and had experiences that didn’t always jibe with her prior knowledge and beliefs.

Vision and Division in Israel
The Jewish Community Relations Council invites you to a special event featuring Sarah Kreimer, author of Vision and Division in Israel.
The event will take place on Thursday, April 13, at the Katz JCC from 7 - 8:30 pm. Registration is $10, or free for students and JCRC patrons.
Sarah Kreimer moved to Israel in 1980 to contribute to the still-young country. Her adventure turned into a lifelong commitment to building an inclusive Israel. Her journey led to a rich life in a land of dreams and harsh realities of forging connections between Jews and Arabs.
Vision and Division in Israel is a memoir of political activism and a profound account of what Israelis and Palestinians might do to transform their lives and their destinies.
