are an adult egalitarian congregation dedicated
to serving the needs of the diverse Jewish community in the Chicago
Northwest Suburbs and the Fox Valley since 1975.
Because we have no building
to maintain,
our dues structure is kept
very low.

Jewish population study to
help in long-term planning
The 2010 edition of the Chicago-area Jewish Population Study has begun.
The studies, conducted every 10 years, provide both a snapshot and a
roadmap for the Jewish community, telling us who we are, where we are,
and where we’re headed.
A private research firm conducts the study by calling thousands of
households throughout the Chicago area. Calls have begun and will
continue for several months. All responses are completely confidential,
and no personally identifiable details are linked to the answers. The
stronger the response, the more reliable the information. So if you are
called, please take the few minutes needed to participate. And spread
the word so your friends, neighbors and colleagues know about this
important study. Contact the Community Survey Hotline at (312) 357-4545
or get more information by e-mailing PopulationStudy@juf.org
or on the web www.juf.org/population.
