Introducing our Strategic Plan 2024–2027
Elevate. Amplify. Engage.
Executive Summary
JCC Greater Boston believes in a vibrant and evolving future in which everyone belongs.
JCC Greater Boston has long been uniquely positioned to offer experiences that serve distinct
and personalized needs for the growing diversity of our collective Jewish community. This is
done through a portfolio of excellent, innovative, reliable, multi-generational programs at the
Leventhal-Sidman JCC in Newton, and regionally at our satellite sites that include preschools and
Camp Grossman, and beyond walls programs geared toward young families exploring their Jewish
identities.
Demand for JCC childcare programs is at an all-time high, and the JCC is well positioned
for growth to serve preschool and school-aged children and their families. Membership and
enrollment in teen and adult programs are meeting or exceeding pre-pandemic levels, with further
growth anticipated following the completion of the Leventhal-Sidman JCC lobby, security, and cafe
renovations in Fall 2024, coupled with the Spring 2025 opening of the Opus residences operated by
our partner, 2Life Communities.
This strategic plan is the result of a nine-month long, collaborative process involving JCC
Board, leadership, staff, and community stakeholders. The plan outlines JCC Greater Boston’s
deep commitment to building on our strengths, investing in the community, and broadening
and deepening our impact over the next several years through growth, innovation, and
operational excellence.
In the coming years, with the support of our incredible staff, the tens of thousands of community
users across 98 cities and towns in Massachusetts, organizational partners, stakeholders, donors, and
our community that is what we are going to do. This strategy is designed to function as a virtuous
cycle, in which, with an eye toward impact and growth, we strengthen our operational foundations
and celebrate in collaboration with the community and philanthropic partners across Greater Boston
and beyond.
