Program accomplishments

  • 1.Now that the AIJC is engaged with over 150 full and part time camping professionals through the member camps, the AIJC has pushed our annual conference to three days. During the fall of 2024 (FY2025), the AIJC met in Montreal Canada at one of the member camps, Camp Bnai Brith Montreal. As in the past, the gathering included opportunities for learning and sharing amongst the member camps. There were presentations, meetings with partner organizations and speakers in areas such as professional development, artificial intelligence, childcare and site and facilities. 2.The AIJC added another Jewish residential summer camp bringing the total to 23 member camps and programs. In addition, we continue to retain the remaining 22 member camps through continued engagement through our 11 professional cohorts that meet on a regular basis. 3.The AIJC along with the Jewish Day Camp Network (JDCN) established a Jewish Networking program for the Jewish day and overnight camping field. During FY2025, we continued the AIJC and JDCN collaborated to include web-based learning around staff training, childcare and programming. At the American Camping Association Tri-States Conference, the two organizations ran a half-day workshop and invited any Jewish not-for-profit camp to attend, which is an unprecedented opportunity for the field.
