The Center engages with many departments, centers, programs, and institutes across UConn on instructional, research, and programming initiatives in areas of shared interest. Faculty affiliated with the Center also have formal relationships with institutions of higher learning in Israel, including the University of Haifa, the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and the University of Tel Aviv.

In keeping with the mission of community outreach, the Center has forged a partnership with Charter Oak Cultural Center in Hartford to collaborate on cultural and educational events. This relationship extends the Center’s capacity to support, sustain, and foster Jewish culture and the arts beyond the campus.

The Center also supports the publication of the American Jewish Year Book, a reference work published yearly since 1899 that serves as the annual record of the North American Jewish Communities. The Year Book is edited by Professor Arnold Dashefsky, the Center’s founding director, and Professor Ira M. Sheskin of the University of Miami.
