ARJE Membership renews each year on July 1.  To make things easier for our members who are often away from their inboxes over the summer, you can fill out the member renewal form today and then select the date you want the invoice sent.   

 

What do your dues support? Your dues sustain our work as the Voice of Reform Jewish Education, advancing the profession of the Jewish educator, and inspiring excellence in the field.  Specifically, the dues revenue supports our organization in these areas:   

  • Programs, Conferences, and Leadership Experiences (25%)
  • Staff who support you and our organization, and advocate for our field (52%)
  • Business Services, Fees, and our Virtual Office (23%)

How is ARJE Funded? ARJE is funded both from donations, investments, sponsorship, and program fees (42%) as well as membership dollars (58%). Your membership contributions directly impact our ability to serve you and other Jewish educators and to continue to advocate on your behalf within the Reform Movement and the broader field of Jewish Communal service.  

How much are ARJE Dues? ARJE Primary Members' dues are 1.241% of your salary. This rate has not increased in the past two years.  There are several other membership categories and discounts.  The details are available on our website here.  All members can confidentially request a dues adjustment directly on the membership renewal form.

  1. Fill out your Membership Renewal Form by July 1 
  2. Share any dues reduction requests, date you want to be invoiced, payment plans, etc., right on the form.
