| From
teens to young adults to senior citizens...
We come from diverse backgrounds. We are students, professionals, stay-at-home
moms and retirees. We are Houstonians and Texans.
What we share is a common vision that all people should be treated with respect
and dignity, that children and families should be given every possible advantage
to help them succeed and that women matter and should have the freedom to create
their own destinies. We share an understanding that positive change will not
happen on its own, that we must play an active role in our community if it is to
change for the better.

NCJW - Greater Houston Section
With over 800 (and growing)
committed members, the Greater Houston Section of NCJW ranks among the top NCJW
Sections in the country. The comprehensive reorganization of our administrative
structure in 2007 resulted in a new infusion of energy and enthusiasm of our
core principals, and a renewed commitment to the advocacy of our established
five priorities.
The Greater Houston Section
consists of 4 branches: Career Branch, Concerned Young Women Branch, Greater
Houston Daytime Branch, and West Houston Evening Branch. The Governing Board
coordinates all the Section-wide activities of NCJW in Houston.
Career Branch was formed
to meet the needs of members who work during the day.
Concerned Young Women Branch
was formed in 1993 to meet the needs of young women. The majority of members are
in their 20s and 30s.
Greater Houston Daytime Branch
has a membership which includes women and men of all ages.
West Houston Evening Branch
focuses its efforts on serving the needs of the West Houston Jewish community in
the area bounded by Sugar Land, Alief, Memorial, Mission Bend, and Katy.

dates and times, please check the most recent Bulletin or the Calendar.
