The future of Jewish early childhood education depends on those who guide our youngest learners—and far too many classrooms are missing those essential leaders. Less than one-third of early childhood centers in the U.S. are fully staffed. That’s not just a statistic—it’s a barrier to welcoming more families into Jewish life at its most formative stage. As a proud founding partner of ElevatEd alongside Jewish Federations of North America and the Union for Reform Judaism, JCC Association is helping to lead the way. Together, we’re building educator pipelines, creating sustainable career paths, and ensuring every classroom has a qualified, passionate teacher at its center.
