VI 03®
• Nearly half of respondents between
55 and 65 feel a significant sense of
attachment to Israel, but less than a
third of those 35 to 54 do.
• Some 60 percent of those in the
oldest age group said that most of their
friends are Jewish, but just a third of
those aged 35 to 44 said the same.
• The idea of Jewish ethnicity, when
expressed in terms of peoplehood, fami-
,L7 ly, history and victimization, garnered
widespread endorsement from respon-
dents overall. But more particularistic
expressions of Jewish ethnicity were
found to be decidedly less popular.
When asked if "Jews have a perma-
nent bond," for example, more than 75
percent said yes.
But when asked if they feel a special
responsibility to take care of Jews in
need around the world, 39 percent said
no and 47 percent said yes. Only 9 per-
cent agreed strongly that they have that
special responsibility.
In contrast, the Young Judea alumni
evinced a much stronger sense of
Jevvishness. Almost all — 93 percent —
said they felt a special responsibility to
take care of Jews in need.
Compared to the general population,
they also demonstrated higher levels of
community involvement and Jewish
philanthropy, greater commitment to
Jewish education for their children and a
tendency to have close Jewish friends, as
well as a stronger connection to Israel.
To Cohen, the overall findings point
to some clear policy directions for North
America's approximately 275 Jewish
community centers and affiliated organi-
zations.
The Jewish Community Centers
Association "needs to capitalize on their
ability to shape community and build
connections between Jews in conjunc-
tion with schools and synagogues more
than they do now," Cohen said.
He added that the Association needs
"to give explicit attention to community
building rather than seeing it as (the)
fortuitous byproduct of good Jewish
education."
