Our Movement

Collective commitments and shared outcomes

What outcomes made us a movement — not just a network?
It's 2033. The JCC movement is recognized as essential Jewish and civic infrastructure. At your table, identify 4-6 movement-level outcomes that now exist only because we worked together.

Examples of outcome categories:

Talent & leadership: Movement-wide executive development programs
Shared language and narrative: Unified messaging about JCC value
Platforms or capabilities: Shared technology infrastructure
Trust and collaboration: Regional learning networks
Influence beyond Jewish community: Recognized civic partners
What did we decide must be done together?
Actions that require collective commitment, not local solutions

Example:

Creating a movement-wide executive leadership pipeline with standardized competencies and succession planning

Reflect: What challenges are too big for any single JCC to solve alone?

What did JCC Association take responsibility for?
Movement-level infrastructure and support systems

Example:

Building and maintaining shared technology platforms that reduce costs and increase capabilities for all JCCs

Reflect: What infrastructure enables local JCCs to thrive?

What did local JCCs commit to in return?
Local commitments that strengthen the movement

Example:

Sharing outcome data, best practices, and learnings transparently across the movement

Reflect: What must local JCCs contribute for the movement to succeed?

Movement Outcome → Mutual Commitments Required
Define the non-negotiable outcomes and actions that will transform us into a true movement by 2030

Three NON-NEGOTIABLE OUTCOMES (by 2030):

1
Write your first non-negotiable outcome...
2
Write your second non-negotiable outcome...
3
Write your third non-negotiable outcome...

Two things we must START in the next 12–18 months (together):

1
What must we start doing together immediately...
2
What must we start doing together immediately...

One thing we must STOP protecting:

1
What sacred cow must we let go of...

Finish this sentence:

"We became a movement when we collectively agreed that_______________"

"_______________was no longer optional."
