Abstract:
The editor notes that the historic task of reconnecting Jews in the FSU to their tradition and to the Jewish people is so significant and complex that many organizations have become involved. The major instrument for renewal and relief is the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee (JDC). The following assessment of problems and prospects was made by JDC staff for intemal review of programs and strategies. We felt that other professionals would be interested in gaining an inside view of how an organization grapples with the enormous challenge of Jewish renewal in the FSU.
