Omaha Jewish Community Center
The Jewish Community Center in Omaha, Nebraska was established in 1926, and moved to its present location at 333 South 132nd Street in 1973. The original JCC was the site of important labor organizing in the city, and has continued to serve as an important center for financial support in Omaha's Jewish community throughout its history.〔Tenenbaum, S. (1993) ''A Credit to Their Community: Jewish Loan Societies in the United States.'' Wayne State University Press. p 149.〕 Today the JCC is the site of a Holocaust memorial that is unique in the Midwestern United States.〔Szonyi, D.M. (1985) ''The Holocaust: an annotated bibliography and resource guide.'' National Jewish Resource Center. p 292.〕 In 2008 teams from the United States Olympic Trials practiced at the JCC before partaking in the official trials in downtown Omaha.〔Nygren, J.

== History ==
When it originally opened in June 1926 at 20th and Dodge Streets in Downtown Omaha the JCC had a library, gymnasium, auditorium and Talmud Torah. The purpose of housing a wide variety of cultural, social, recreational, and other activities for the area's Jewish population. Jews from Germany, Poland, Russia and other Eastern European countries participated in a variety of Jewish cultural activities at the JCC; however, they did not celebrate their own national cultures, further attributing to cultural assimilation.〔Larsen, Cotrell, Daub and Daub. (2007) ''Upstream Metropolis: An urban biography.'' University of Nebraska Press. p 210.〕 In 1931 the JCC merged with the Omaha Welfare Federation and the Omaha Jewish Philanthropies, with the new name of The Jewish Community Center and Welfare Federation. The Jewish Community Forum featuring renowned guest speakers, the Jewish Youth Council dedicated to youth development and the Philanthropies Campaign, which has administered the collection of funds for numerous Jewish causes, were all located at the JCC.〔("Jewish Community Center (Omaha, Neb.)" ), Nebraska State Historical Society. Retrieved 7/28/08.〕
The Center moved to West Omaha in 1973, influencing "a substantial amount of secondary real estate selections" as families and synagogues moved west.
