About The Jeighborhood

The Jeighborhood is your Jewish neighborhood - a landscape of programs, informal interest groups, courses, camps, and celebrations that bring the JCC to you. The Jeighborhood borrows from the incredible programs offered at the J - from CJC lectures to Jewish holiday celebrations to summer camp - and offers entry points that are closer to home. Our mission is to connect the entire San Diego community to Jewish heritage, identity, experiences and values - and not only those who live close by. The Jeighborhood aims to meet people where they are, both figuratively and literally.
