Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Call the synagogue office at 215-844-1507 or email office@germantownjewishcentre.org to ask about the next election session and how to get the Zoom link..

Check with the group before you show up. You need to sign up first.

What to expect

A recent session ran on Zoom for 90 minutes, from 7 to 8:30 pm, where the team reviewed possible actions and decided which ones neighbors might take on together. The page does not say how many people attend or whether guests are welcome. Ask the office before you plan to join.

Tips for your first visit

  • Ask the office whether the next session is open to people who are not members.
  • The session page names four partner groups: ACLU of Pennsylvania, Committee of Seventy, Election Protection, and the Philadelphia Neighborhood Networks Action Network. Read what each one offers before you come.
  • The session page asks people to RSVP by email to get the Zoom link, so the office can point you to the right person.

Newcomer welcome

Takes some effort for newcomers (2 out of 5). Why we say this: The session page is written for members and does not say whether others can attend, so the way in is to ask the office first, even though prospective members are welcome to call and visit..
