Connect with a PJ Library Parent or Grandparent in Your Community!
PJ Library Parent and Grandparent Connectors create meaningful gatherings for families with young children and serve as guides in connecting families with Jewish resources or organizations in their neighborhoods. Connectors throughout New York are planning stroller walks, baby and caregiver playgroups, parents’ nights out, holiday celebrations, and playground meetups. In addition to reading your PJ Library books at home with your family, we hope that you will join your local PJ Library Parent Connector for a gathering soon!
If your neighborhood community or affinity group is not currently represented and you would like to organize a gathering in your neighborhood with our support, please contact Liz Mueller (she/her), Family Engagement Manager, PJ Library in New York. We are hiring a limited number of new Parent Connectors for 2025-26. Details and application here.
We are grateful to UJA-Federation of New York for their support of the PJ Library Parent Connector program.
