Jewish Community Relations Council
The Jewish Community Relations Council (JCRC) is a standing committee of the Tampa JCCs and Federation. The JCRC’s primary purpose is to develop and carry out a unified community relations program to broadly represent the interests of the local Jewish community in Hillsborough and Pasco Counties as well as support and promote Israel advocacy and education for the Tampa Jewish community.
The JCRC committee includes a chair and at-large members appointed by the president of the Tampa JCCs and Federation and serves at his/her pleasure. Meetings are generally held bi-monthly, by invitation only.
The JCRC is a member of the Jewish Council for Public Affairs (JCPA), serving as the representative voice of the organized American Jewish community
