They are open on Saturdays (according to JCCA, 56% of all JCCs are open on Saturdays, with limited programming.)

The remaining 10% of income comes from all other programming.

There are 25 Board Members, which oversee both Orlando JCC’s. Each member pledges to “give or get” at least $1000 annually. They meet 10 times per year (not in the summer) There is a 2 year term for Board members, and a 2 year term for elected Officers. The amount of Board training utilized is “not enough”.

This JCC “outsources” maintenance crews and bus drivers. This saves on medical insurance and increases reliability of services.
