•
parent families with school
age children are the most ac-
tive in Jewish affairs.
Childless younger adults
and single parents are gen-
erally the least active.
Other dimensions of Jew-
ish identity are:
• Two out of every five
Detroit Jewish households
identify as Conservative;
one of three identify as
Reform; about 7 percent are
Orthodox. Numbers of Or-
thodox Jews are expected to
increase, Reform may be ex-
periencing very slow growth
and Conservative may be go-
ing through very slow
shrinkage.
• Those with higher in-
comes participate more fre-
quently in Jewish communal
activities that require finan-
cial support. Those with
lower incomes are just as
likely as their more affluent
counterparts to pray, per-
form ritual practices, ex-
press positive feelings about
being Jewish and undertake
those activities where
money is unimportant.
• Of married Jewish men,
87 percent are married to
women who were born Jew-
ish, and 93 percent are mar-
ried to born-Jews or con-
verts.
"Because of net gains to
the Jewish population deriv-
ing from converts and from
Gentile spouses of Jews who
acquiesce to raising their
children as Jews, the Jewish
population of Detroit is not
likely to sustain large losses
due to out-marriage," the
report states.
• Younger Jews express
more feelings of distance
from Israel than older Jews.
A single visit to Israel is
associated with much
greater feelings of closeness.
• Over three-fifths of
school age children are
enrolled in a Jewish educa-
tional program. Over four-
fifths of Jewish teens have
received a form of Jewish
education.
A key problem for Jewish
leaders, the demographers
say, is the lack of enthusi-
asm for Jewish life among
the "large number of Jews
who occasionally patronize
or perfunctorily support
Jewish communal institu-
tions.
"These are people who
tend to be involved but not
deeply committed," they
wrote.
From outreach to enrich-
ment: Jewish identity and af-
filiation in metropolitan
Detroit will be the second of
several reports to come from
the study. Others will cover
the community's mobility,
service needs and philan-
thropy.
The analysis shows that
levels of Jewish identity are
relatively stable.
"The overall picture points
to continuity rather than
erosion," the demographers
Younger Jews

Israel.
wrote. "The so-called unaf-
filiated population is both
small and stable. The largest
group of Detroit area Jews is
neither heavily involved nor
very peripheral. Rather it is
moderately active in Jewish
life, be it in the home or the
community."
Federation officials say
they hope to use the analysis
for long-range community
planning. Their goal is to
broaden involvement, inten-
sify commitment and create
opportunities for enhanced
Judaic knowledge and skills
among the affiliated popula-
tion.
