Shalom and Welcome to the Garden State Region of Women’s League for Conservative Judaism. WLCJ is the largest synagogue-based women’s organization worldwide, founded in 1918 by Matilde Schechter. The WLCJ network links over 100,000 women in 13 regions in the United States with groups in Israel, Europe, and South America.
Since 2008, the Northern New Jersey and the Central New Jersey branches combined to form the Garden State Region that now has 28 sisterhood affiliates. Our mission is to serve as a connection between Women’s League and its affiliates and members and to provide services that will strengthen our Sisterhoods with the needs to succeed.
Every woman has the opportunity to participate in preserving, promoting, and perpetuating Conservative/Masorti Judaism by giving to the Torah Fund Campaign of WLCJ. The Torah Fund Campaign of WLCJ helps support programs and student scholarships at Jewish Theological Seminary (New York, NY), Ziegler School of Rabbinic Studies (Los Angeles, CA), Schechter Institute of Jewish Studies (Jerusalem), Seminario Rabinico Latinoamericano (Buenos Aires, Argentina), and Zacharias Frankel College (Potsdam, Germany).
