Guest Speaker - Wednesday Night
Stuart Silver, Jewish Federation of South Palm Beach County
Presentation of the 2018 Jewish Demographic/Trend Study
On Wednesday, December 11, 2019 at 7:00 PM, Stuart Silver from The Jewish Federation of South Palm Beach County will be at Congregation Shaarei Kodesh to present the latest trends and demographics related to Jewish people in South Palm Beach County. There will be a particular focus on trends in synagogue life.
It is customary for Jewish Federations throughout the United States to engage in a demographic study of the community every 10 years or so. This is done to address the current needs of our community, and to enable Federation and other Jewish service agencies to plan for the future.
In late 2017, Federation leadership recognized that updated data were needed, given the passage of time. Changes had occurred in our community which made a new survey and report essential. Our Federation engaged the Cohen Center for Modern Jewish Studies at Brandeis University to conduct the survey and to report on its findings.
