Abstract:
To gauge the effectiveness of United Jewish Communities three years after its creation, key stakeholders were surveyed. The survey found that few had great hopes for the merged entity, but that even those modest hopes were not achieved. UJC is plagued by a lack of clarity of mission, which will seriously hamper its future effectiveness.
