For the people who build Jewish San Diego.
What Is JPro
JPro San Diego is the professional network for people who work at Jewish organizations across the region. Educators and development directors, camp staff and clergy, program coordinators and executive directors. We gather a few times a year to learn from each other, trade what is working, and build the kind of relationships that make this work sustainable.
Every JPro program is open to anyone on staff at a Jewish communal organization in San Diego, whatever your role, whatever your title, however long you have been at it. JPro San Diego is a joint initiative of Jewish Federation of San Diego and Jewish Community Foundation San Diego, and registration for every program is handled by the Foundation.
