Mission Statement
The Alpert Jewish Community Center provides programs and services that contribute to the sound development of individuals of all ages and offers opportunities to enhance an appreciation of Jewish and Democratic values in Long Beach.
Description
The Long Beach Jewish Community Center was established in August, 1948. Expanding to meet the growth of the Center and its members, a campaign from the Jewish Federation was established in 1956 to build a new center at the present location. Ever expanding growth of the JCC resulted in the need for yet a bigger building. On September 28, 1997 the Center celebrated the first formal groundbreaking ceremony. The new Alpert Jewish Community Center on the Weinberg Jewish Federation Campus opened in December 2000.
