Care Team
We serve congregants who need extra support, who may need help with a ride after they leave the hospital to get to doctor’s appointments, the pharmacy, grocery store, services, or another CRJ event.  We also help congregants who may need meals delivered to their homes after a hospital stay or giving birth.

Hospital Visitation
Hospitals can be lonely places, so CRJ volunteers provide a friendly face. The purpose of this committee is to visit congregants in local area hospitals and nursing homes or assisted living facilities, providing a connection to CRJ and a compassionate heart.

Prime Timers
A vibrant, spirited group of adults 60-ish and over, who look forward to monthly events to renewing friendships – or creating new ones – and who enjoy quality entertainment, education, or community awareness programming, and celebrating and embracing this prime time of our lives.

Social Action
We welcome you into our congregation which values “Ma’asim Tovim” (the doing of good deeds). This is done in group settings, on your own, or through any of the many volunteer activities with which you may already be affiliated. Our group of passionate volunteers lead projects throughout the year such as creating baskets for seniors on Thanksgiving, collecting sneakers for children who attend Title 1 schools, Cook and Serve and the Coalition for the Homeless, serving over 400+ meals annually to seniors on Christmas Day who are unable to leave their homes and so many more incredible outreaches of love into our community.

Social Justice Advocacy
The Justice Advocacy Group (JAG) is CRJ's response to the Reform Movement's call to action to work as a community to build a world of wholeness, justice, and compassion, one that is more equitable and safer for all.

Volunteers
From offering fellow congregants a warm and welcoming greeting on Friday nights to helping set up and break down events to working in the Temple office or hosting our CRJ table at an event, and everything in between, volunteers are the lifeblood of CRJ. If you have time to give and would like to help out in any way, we always have a place for you to lend a hand!
