The JPro conference, in partnership with Jewish Federations of North America, has become a signature gathering for Jewish community professionals. It is a vital source of connection, learning, and field-building.
The opportunity to come together in person not only invigorates our work, but also reignites the passion and purpose that drives us forward. In the context of the fractured world that Jewish communal professionals are facing following October 7th, JPro25 will lean into hope and opportunity, connection and community, and the vision needed to shape a vibrant future for our sector and the Jewish people.
"A must-have experience for any Jewish communal professional. This is a world-class conference for the Jewish world, whose benefits will surely continue well into the future."
