join the jcc
more than a gym
When you join the Harry & Rose Family Jewish Community Center, you join more than a gym. You join a place of heart, standards, flexibility, and inclusivity (and, yes, a state-of-the-art fitness facility). As a premier destination for wellness, education, and community services – the JCC is the place where fitness comes with friendship and your membership supports community programs that address food insecurity, welcomes individuals with disabilities, and helps us partner to build a healthier Milwaukee.
And while our programs are built on Jewish values, you don’t have to be Jewish to join the JCC. We offer an inclusive environment where members of all walks of life can expand their horizons and find common ground. In short, The J is for everyone.
