Belonging. Connection. Jewish Life for Everyone.

Jewish life flourishes when people feel seen, supported, and inspired to connect. At every age and every stage, the Jewish Federation of Greater Atlanta makes it possible to find your people, build Jewish identity, and be part of something bigger than yourself.
Through innovative programs, leadership development, Jewish education, and grassroots engagement, we help thousands of individuals and families live rich Jewish lives. Whether you’re a new parent, a teen finding your voice, or a young professional seeking purpose and connection, Federation is your home for Jewish belonging.

JTeen supports Jewish teens through leadership development, community service, and experiences that build confidence, identity, and a sense of purpose.
Fueling Grassroots Connection
JGather offers microgrants to individuals with bold ideas—bringing thousands of meaningful, locally-driven Jewish experiences to life across Atlanta.
Developing the Next Generation of Leaders
Through Young Leadership Division, JBusiness, JTech, and JCREN, we foster a vibrant network of Jewish professionals, helping them grow in their careers while deepening their Jewish involvement.
Championing Women’s Leadership and Giving
