Dear JCC Community,

With the notification that local officials are urging residents to stay off of the roads unless it is essential, the JCCs in Squirrel Hill and South Hills will be closed Monday, January 26.

We will continue to monitor conditions and provide updates through JCC channels. For the most up-to-date information, please check the JCC’s updates via text, the JCCPGH.org website, the JCCPGH APP or social media channels.

On demand fitness options can be found on the JCCPGH APP.

If you or anyone you know is in need of support accessing vital winter resources, please reach out to PA 211 Southwest HERE powered by our partner agency, United Way of Southwestern Pennsylvania.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. Please stay safe and check on your neighbors. You can contact us by email but please note that response times will be longer than usual.

Sincerely,
The JCC Membership Team
