Partnership 2000, a program of the Jewish Agency for Israel and United Jewish Communities, promotes people to people relationships between the Jewish community of Northern New Jersey and the city of Nahariya through cultural, social, medical and educational connections. As such, representatives from Nahariya were visiting Northern New Jersey for its recent semi-annual steering committee meeting. The delegation from Nahariya included a representative from the mayor's office, who wanted to make connections with local municipal officials in their sister community of Northern New Jersey . The Federation reached out to Englewood Mayor Wildes in its desire to build a living bridge between our respective communities. Government is just one area where these people to people connections are being made. Other examples as stated above, include education, social service, medicine, police first responders, just to name a few.
