Program areas at The Jewish Cemetery Association of Massachusetts
Maintain cemeteries - since 1984, jcam has taken ownership for 115 abandoned and active Jewish cemeteries, as well as managing nine independent Jewish cemeteries. Jcam performs regular and seasonal maintenance for The cemeteries and grave sites as prescribed by Jewish laws and customs. In addition, jcam pays attention to The security of these visible, vulnerable, and often remote, Jewish sites. In so doing, The memories of The community's children, parents, grandparents and more distant ancestors are preserved for future generations of Jewish families and historians.
Support burials - many of The jcam cemeteries continue to be fully operational, with empty plots available for new families and family members. Jcam helps families make arrangements for their loved ones and helps provide for burials according to Jewish laws and customs (on an as needed basis). Free graves and burials are provided for indigent people in The Jewish community, as part of a commitment to helping those in need have proper and dignified Jewish burial. Jcam partners with other community organizations in this mission.
Restore cemeteries - many Jewish cemeteries fell into disrepair in The years before jcam took responsibility for their maintenance. Each year, jcam has invested in The restoration of Jewish cemeteries to improve safety and enhance their sacred purpose for families and visitors.
