![]() JCC-North County ECHO Meal Prep Team 7/31/24 We are grateful to be one among many local community service clubs and faith-based organizations, whose cooperative efforts 24/7 ensure that 100 shelter residents and other food-insecure people -- families, couples and individuals -- have enough to eat every day of the week. ECHO is located at 6370 Atascadero Ave, just across the street from Atascadero Bible Church. On Wednesday, July 31, we can deliver our meal items to ECHO starting at 4:00 PM. If you would like to stay and serve in person, please let Mimi or Gail know. If not, then ECHO's volunteers will be available to serve the shelter's clients. CLICK HERE TO SIGN-UP ![]() |
In a recent community-wide survey, almost 200 households in San Luis Obispo and Northern Santa Barbara counties told us they warmly view JCC programs. By connecting and representing all Jewish people - whether or not they are affiliated to the various Jewish institutions in the region – these programs are valued, appreciated, and enjoyed.
However, their future is not guaranteed. Donations are valuable, but unpredictable. Like all non-profits, the JCC has a budget which requires predictable income. After much consideration, the Board of Directors is initiating an annual “JCC Supporter Contribution” beginning September 1st, 2023. This new lifeline will create a reliable structure for all the programs and services you’ve come to expect. A financially secure JCC benefits everyone! |
Mission Statement
The JCC-Federation of SLO seeks to foster a united community on the Central Coast through programs and services offering educational, social and recreational activities based on Jewish principles. We strive to "Build community locally, connecting globally."
What do we do?
We serve as the focal point of Jewish community life in San Luis Obispo County. We are a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization enriching life in the area and connecting people of all backgrounds, ages, and religions.

Locally, we are members of the SLO Chamber of Commerce, SPOKES, and the Downtown Association, along with being a partner (through our social service agency, Jewish Family Services of SLO) with Transitions-Mental Health Association. The JCC-Federation is also served by the Hebrew Free Loan Association of San Francisco, a nonprofit that provides interest-free loans to help Jewish individuals in Northern California (including San Luis Obispo) overcome financial challenges and pursue life dreams.
Our 2,300+ member-based organization is led by its Board of Directors, Jewish Family Services Volunteer Intake Coordinator, JCC-Federation Manager, committees and volunteers.
