About Us

Our History

The JCC of Northern NJ touches the lives of hundreds of participants through its core programs and communal service initiatives. Founded as a non-profit, voluntary organization in Hackensack in 1924, the JCC helped a generation of Jewish immigrants assimilate into American society. The organization promoted fellowship and community spirit through its array of educational, recreational, social, and cultural programming for individuals and families. That mission continues to this day through outreach, connection, and engagement guided and inspired by Jewish values.
