Welcome to the United Jewish Center

We appreciate your interest in our congregation, which has been welcoming Jews since 1926, a tradition that continues today.

As the largest congregation in Western Connecticut, we are a vital force in the Jewish and interfaith communities. Our membership is drawn from a 13-town area, attracting Jews to services and programs that meet their traditional, educational and spiritual needs.
