Abstract: | Jewish Educational Planning at the Communal Level There has been a great deal of discussion lately about the future of central agencies. Much of it focuses on central agency/federation relationships in general, and planning roles in particular within the communal setting. That setting, at both local and continental levels, is comprised of a multidimensional matrix of organizations and bodies which under the best of circumstances work together in a synergistic way. When that happens, the community as a whole is stronger and all involved, including Jewish education, benefit. When that does not, unfortunately, the opposite is true. |
