Jewish Community Center of the Lehigh Valley
The JCC is more than just a building. We are a community. Throughout our 100 year history together, we have grown roots that reside in the loving and welcoming nature of our community. It is in these people, our members, that we continue to branch out. A century ago, the JCC of the Lehigh Valley was created to serve the needs of a growing Jewish community. We have established ourselves as a driving force in the social, cultural and educational life surrounding the greater Lehigh Valley. The entire community—families and singles, young and old—have come to play, learn, exercise, socialize and share in the cultural wealth of our community. The JCC has become our “neighborhood,” a place where Jewish and secular values and traditions can be shared actively in a warm, comfortable, vibrant environment. The JCC proudly serves over 2,000 members. We welcome you to tour our facilities, find out about our programs and become part of our extended family. We’ve celebrated 100 years and enjoyed thousands of memories. Now, our JCC story continues. We hope that you will be a part of it.
