NCJWA Vic empowers women across generations to find their voice, realise their potential and help shape a more equitable and connected community.
Established in Victoria in 1927 by Dr Fanny Reading, we are an independent, grassroots Jewish women’s organisation advancing the status of women in the Jewish and broader communities.
Our programs span the life cycle, from building confidence and identity in teenage girls through JAM, to developing women’s leadership through #HerSpace, offering connection and care through early motherhood with Caring Mums, and strengthening belonging in later life through Connect Seniors.
At the heart of our work is the belief that receiving and giving are two parts of the same whole. Every woman deserves care and encouragement, and every woman has something valuable to contribute. Through our programs, women can find connection, grow in confidence and create change, as participants, volunteers, mentors, leaders and advocates.
We bring women together across generations, backgrounds and experiences, and partner with organisations locally, nationally and globally to amplify our collective voice. Together, we build a community where women are valued, heard and empowered throughout their lives.
