The Problem
JRCC Rockford, led by the amazing Rabbi Neft, got a brand-new website! Rabbi Neft’s super busy bringing the community together and spreading joy through their “Do More Jewish” mission. The old site just wasn’t cutting it – it was half-done and not easy for Rabbi Neft to update. We jumped in to create a space online that’s as welcoming and vibrant as their community. Plus, we made sure it speaks both English and Russian, just like many folks in the JRCC family.
Rabbi Neft had his hands full and couldn’t give the old website the love it needed. It was like trying to bake a cake but forgetting half the ingredients. On top of that, there were some super strict IT rules we had to follow, making this baking project even trickier. But hey, who doesn’t love a challenge?

JRCC is here to build community functions, including programming for all ages and groups, Jewish education for children, teenagers, young adults, and adults alike, as well as synagogue services.
how the project was solved
Organizing multiple blocks of information starts with having a personal outlining format to the set of information first before distributing it to the corresponding categories.
Talkerstein consulting made sure to have proper allocations for all categories that the website accommodates, this included holidays, programs, events, and information links.
We rolled up our sleeves and got to work. We crafted a website that’s all about the JRCC vibe – think of it as a digital mural that tells their story. With some tech magic (a.k.a. premium plugins), we got everything running smoothly and made sure it followed all those strict rules. Now, the site has cool features like a unique menu bar, and it even tells you Shabbat times and the Torah portion for the week. It’s like having your own digital guide to Jewish life!
