Abstract:

This article begins with a definition of the goals of Jewish education as a means of introducing the Jewish Community Center as an important partner in achieving these goals. The author then goes on to describe some environmental factors that give the Center potential and identifies some of its traditional services. He concludes with three unique models that contribute to Jewish education: experiential, interventive and ethnic counseling.
