Community

East Midwood Jewish Center is much more than a synagogue. We are also a civic and cultural resource for Brooklyn.

Older Adult Center

Jewish Community Council of Greater Coney Island's Older Adult Center provides free kosher lunches on weekdays and organizes social activities, with a home base in EMJC's Regency Room. Learn more about JCCGCI's programs.
