Abstract:

Changing circumstances and changing characteristics of the Jewish Community will force change in the way resources must be developed in support of Jewish communal programs and services. When the Jewish communal system has attained levels of spending that, for operational purposes alone, amount to billions of dollars each year, the effort to generate resources cannot be approached casually or improvisationally. Careful analysis and planning are required.
