Services

Most Jewish Genealogical Societies hold Beginner's Workshops, have monthly meetings, publish a newsletter, and have a collection of genealogical reference materials. They also have several special-interest groups, which focus on a particular region of the world, such as Lithuania or Romania. Each summer the Association co-sponsors a Summer Seminar either in a U.S. city or an overseas location.
