Health Professions Team
The Health Professions Team plays a crucial role in shaping the mission and future of Combined Jewish Philanthropies. The Health Professions Team offers opportunities to get involved with the Boston Jewish community through fundraising, volunteering, joining a committee, traveling on a mission, caring for people in need, strengthening Jewish education, and helping Jews in Israel and around the world.  Through CJP, members develop life-long relationships and connect with their Jewish values and culture.
