JCC Cares is our initiative to bring the Jewish value of tikkun olam into the everyday lives of the members and staff at JCC Rockland. Tikkun olam is a Jewish concept defined by acts of kindness to help repair the world. Each month, JCC Cares will have a program dedicated to helping our community through social action.
