Study found that nearly
one-third of Jewish people
in Cleveland were born
between 1946-1964. With the
realization that a signifi-
cant segment of the Jewish
community were part of
the Baby Boomer era, the
Federation reached out to
community members within
this demographic to learn
more about their needs and
aspirations for the next step
in their lives. The focus group
insight included adults over
the community, connect
with like-minded individuals
through social programming,
use their professional skills
and talents to aid others
in need, learn new skills
through workshops and cer-
tification courses, and travel
to do good for others outside
of Cleveland.
