These merged organizations included the YWHA, YMHA, and the National Council of Young Men's Hebrew and Kindred Association" (Wikipedia). These quarterly journals report on those efforts and make suggestions for how to improve outreach, activities, and leadership; they also make other proposals and raise questions for the Jewish Community Center movement to grapple with.
