The Scarsdale Jewish Community Association (SJCA) is a civic and community organization created to serve as an organized civic voice and coordinating body for Scarsdale’s Jewish community.

Rooted in Jewish peoplehood and our shared heritage and culture, SJCA brings together Jewish residents across backgrounds, denominations, and synagogue affiliations, including those with no affiliation. We advocate for the interests and well-being of our community, connect residents with local institutions and Jewish organizations, serve as a resource on matters affecting the Jewish residents of Scarsdale, and help identify and address needs that might otherwise go unmet.

Our goal is simple: to strengthen Jewish communal life in Scarsdale by giving our community a place to connect, communicate, organize, and be heard.

If I am not for myself, who will be for me?

If I am only for myself, what am I?

And if not now, when?
