Make Your Voice Heard in Miami’s Jewish Community Study

Your voice matters for the future of Miami's Jewish community! In order to better understand the demographics and needs of Miami’s Jewish population, every 10 years the Greater Miami Jewish Federation commissions a community-wide study. The study launched in February through the Cohen Center for Modern Jewish Studies at Brandeis University, in partnership with NORC at the University of Chicago, an independent research institution. The data will provide a dynamic understanding of how many Jewish families and individuals call Miami-Dade home as well as where there are gaps in Jewish communal programming and services, or barriers to affiliation and participation in Jewish life. Because this is a scientific survey with a defined sample frame, not everyone will receive an invitation. If you receive a call or an invitation via email or text entitled “Miami Jewish Community Study,” participation is strongly encouraged and all responses are completely confidential. For more information on the study, please click here or call 305.576.4000.
