Now More Than Ever
In a rapidly changing and uncertain world, CJPE strengthens Jewish identity, deepens connections, and fosters
a lasting sense of belonging.
Harnessing the Power of Peoplehood

What we do
CJPE creates strategies for Jewish professionals to enable their constituents to see themselves as active participants in an ongoing Jewish story—one they are continually interpreting and contributing to.
Through training, research, thought leadership and guidance, we help educators and leaders make the experience of belonging to the Jewish People more meaninful and to promote a conscious commitment to the collective well-being (areivut haddadit) and the ethical mission of tikkun olam - making the world a better place for all.
