Seeking a deeper connection to Judaism?
B'ruchim Haba'im - Welcome to the Jewish Collaborative of Orange County (JCoOC), a creative Jewish space dedicated to helping people connect their personal passions to Judaism and build community. We believe in partnership and collaboration as a vehicle to strengthen Jewish ties, and are committed to innovating, supporting and collaborating on a wide range of programs that enrich the landscape of Jewish life locally and nationally.
JCoOC is a Jewish Empowerment Zone, where new ideas can be shared and realized through open-hearted networking and support. Our virtual tent is a place where Jewish artists, activists, students of all ages and interests, healers and helpers can find or create an outlet for Jewish expression and inspire others.
We hope you will explore our colorful palette of worship, cultural and social opportunities, and sign up to receive our weekly emails. We may be offering just what you were looking for!
