Greater Washington Jewish Community Study
Insights to shape our community’s future
The 2017 Greater Washington Jewish Community Study offers a detailed portrait of Jewish life across DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia. Commissioned by The Jewish Federation of Greater Washington and conducted by Brandeis University’s Cohen Center for Modern Jewish Studies, the study provides essential data to help guide our community's growth, planning, and investment. Though the data is from 2017, it remains a valuable resource in understanding key trends in Jewish identity, engagement, education, and demographics across our region.
