Once upon a time, people left Judaism because they had questions.Today, they are coming back for the same reason.
Nowadays, people are finding answers – profound, meaningful and exceptionally relevant answers. Where? In the Torah. At the Jewish Renaissance Center, women of all ages and backgrounds discover Torah for themselves. With instructors and staff dedicated to meeting the needs of today’s Jewish woman, the JRC offers a unique blend of quality education and personal guidance.
The JRC is dedicated to women’s issues and stresses the historic contribution of women to Judaism. Programs address the unique spiritual and intellectual aspects of Jewish womanhood and focus on the integration of 3300 years of Jewish wisdom into everyday life.
Today’s spiritually honest and intellectually demanding woman is seeking to make an informed choice when it comes to her core identity. The Jewish Renaissance Center makes an informed choice possible. Before you can make an informed choice, it helps to be… informed! Enter the world of the Jewish Renaissance Center and let the world of Judaism enter you.
