The mission of the JCCRP is to aid in meeting the needs of the impoverished and vulnerable members of the Rockaway Community by determining the nature and extent of their basic needs and methods of meeting those needs. To assist other organizations in developing and providing services for the poor. To cooperate with governmental and non-governmental organizations for improvements in and the expansion of housing, community services, health and social services and similar areas of concern. The Jewish Community Council of the Rockaway Peninsula (JCCRP) strives to improve the cultural, educational, social, communal, and religious welfare within its local community. We offer Far Rockaway and Nassau County residents a variety of services, including evaluation of impoverished residents’ needs, plans to address those needs, referrals to partner organizations, assistance with enrollment in low-income government programs, housing placement for the homeless, and more. Chesed, or lovingkindness, motivates us as a Jewish organization to care for our neighbors in need.
