1 A Portrait of Jewish Columbus EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 2013
2 March 2014 Counting Jews has been going on since Biblical times. Having a proper census has helped us understand our strengths, needs and potential. That is why three partners, the Jewish Federation of Columbus, The Wexner Foundation and the Columbus Jewish Foundation chose to pursue this study: to help measure how we are achieving our vision of being a thriving Jewish community at the forefront of the next renaissance in Jewish life. Some of the data may surprise and some may be more intuitive. A key finding is that our numbers have grown from 22,000 a decade ago to over 25,000 now. And we are a young community compared to some peer cities, which bodes well for us. Of concern, you will find that many households in our community are living near poverty, much more so than other Jewish communities such as Cleveland and Chicago. The findings will help us understand the makeup of our community, as well as the opportunities we have for improvement. We expect this report will be used by our community synagogues and agencies to prioritize services, to improve outreach efforts and to recalibrate organizational goals. As you read through the material, be assured that it was prepared by a highly experienced, well-trained and independent professional team from JPAR Jewish Policy & Action Research. JPAR has completed more than 25 studies in other local Jewish communities. The sampling methodology was also vetted by experienced volunteers who are themselves experts in their fields. In short, we are presenting as thorough and accurate a survey as can be done, again mindful that counting Jews is not for the faint of heart! The complete report, methodology and findings can be found at Please share any thoughts or reactions to the report with us at info@tcjf.org. 2

7 About the Study The JPAR research team has conducted studies in 25 communities over two decades. Results of the 2013 Portrait of Jewish Columbus study are based on a rigorous, state-of-the-art survey sampling methodology they developed during this time. In Columbus, more than 85,000 randomly selected telephone numbers were dialed, including more than 25,000 cell phone numbers. Approximately 6,000 households (Jewish and non-jewish) answered a two-to-three minute screener which determined whether there was an adult in the household who self-identified as Jewish; 762 extensive interviews were completed with Jewish households who were identified during the screening process. These interviews lasted about 15 to 30 minutes and covered a wider range of topics than presented in this report. This sampling design provides for an accurate estimate of the greater Columbus Jewish population by producing a representative sample of Jewish households. An expanded methodology report with complete sampling dispositions, statistical estimates of design effect and sampling error, plus the survey interview questionnaires and interviewer training materials will be available online at the Berman Jewish Study Goals Provide a database to inform policy and planning Describe characteristics, attitudes, behaviors and geographic distribution Estimate the number of Jews and Jewish households Compare the 2013 Jewish population to 2001 and 1990 Support for the Study Jewish Federation of Columbus Michael Canter, Executive Board Chair Gordon Hecker, President & Chief Executive Officer Mark Anzalone, Vice President, Marketing Columbus Jewish Foundation Steve Schottenstein, President Jackie Jacobs, CEO Meagan Buren, Director of Marketing and Communications The Wexner Foundation Abigail and Leslie Wexner, Co-Founders Rabbi Elka Abrahamson, President Larry Moses, Senior Philanthropic Advisor Ken Steinman, Research Consultant The JPAR Research Team Ukeles Associates, Inc.
