Description: "'Behold how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell in unity!' the Psalmist declares. The Council of Jewish Federations (CJF), an association of 200 Jewish federations embracing 800 communities in the U.S. and Canada, strikingly exemplifies this spirit. Unique among all Jewish organizations, the federation movement has brought together the most diverse philosophies, views, and priorities to work together for the purposes which all share."--Book Jacket.
