The Jewish Chaplaincy strives to maintain a strong, vibrant, and supportive Jewish community at Georgetown to provide undergraduate, graduate, and professional students with opportunities to explore their own Jewish identities and to connect with students in the greater Washington Jewish Community.

Every Jewish student is a significant part of Georgetown's Jewish community. The Jewish Student Association/Hillel (JSA/Hillel) is the principal campus organization for Jewish students. Activities and Events are planned by students from all interest groups to meet the needs of the diverse population of Jewish students. Social, educational, political, cultural, and intercultural activities offer many ways to become involved in Jewish life at Georgetown.

Jewish Ministry invites its members to engage in service and encourages them to reflect on their work in the light of their faith. Retreats and other programs offer time for reflection and spiritual growth.
