General Info

Jewish Russian Learning Center was established in 2004. Our mission is to promote and strengthen Jewish awareness, pride and identity by providing educational, cultural and social activities and services to all Jewish individuals and families regardless of affiliation or background. We make a special emphasis on the programs that target Russian-speaking Jews, who were deprived of their Jewish heritage in their home countries. JRLC is committed to enriching the lives of every single Jew in Staten Island through its multiple programs and media projects, such as ‘Fifth Dimension’ magazine and weekly radio talk show. Staten Island ranks among the fastest growing communities on the East Coast. As more and more Russian Jewish people and their families move in, there is an ever increasing need for a warm, friendly Jewish center promoting Jewish identity. Jewish Russian Learning Center strives to fill this need touching the lives of thousands individuals.
