Greater Boston Jewish Community Study 2025
Every 10 years, we commission an in-depth study of our Greater Boston Jewish community, designed to give us a better and clearer understanding of who we are, what we need, the challenges we’re facing, and the opportunities we can leverage to build a stronger, more vibrant Jewish future. From our beliefs to our experiences to our relationships with Judaism and Israel, these insights inform our understanding of, and planning for, our community.
CJP is pleased to share that the 2025 Greater Boston Jewish Community Study will be conducted by Rosov Consulting. For more than 15 years, Rosov has served Jewish organizations across the country through their strong blend of methodological rigor, expertise, and dynamic partnership. “We are very honored that CJP has selected us to carry the long tradition of Jewish community studies in Boston forward to the next stage," said Wendy Rosov, Founder and Principal of Rosov Consulting. "And we could not be more delighted to be working with SSRS, a leader in survey research, on this study. Together, we are excited to support CJP's mission to strengthen Jewish life in the Boston area.”
