Abstract:
In a voluntary society, people will only choose to be Jewish if they are convinced that Judaism is a vital and meaningful context in which to live their lives and that the Jewish community is their home. Synagogues and federations must work closely together to provide intensive Jewish education, create meaningful Jewish experiences and connections for college-aged youth, and encourage the integration of converts into Jewish life.
