An association of 30 synagogues and other religious, education, fraternal and community organizations, the Northeast Queens Jewish Community Council (NEQJCC) covers Bay Terrace, Bayside, Bellerose, Douglaston, Floral Park, Fresh Meadows, Glen Oaks, Holliswood, Hollis Hills, Jamaica Estates, Little Neck, New Hyde Park, Oakland Gardens and Queens Village (north).

Council projects include neighborhood development, Jewish continuity, Lay Leadership, social action, fostering intergroup understanding and building a multi-cultural coalition. The Council combats anti-Semitism and discrimination, sponsors forums with major public figures, Jewish cultural events, open discussions with local Rabbis and represents community concerns. As part of its Neighborhood Development efforts, the Council helped form the NORC-WOW, a pilot program to serve seniors in one and two family homes. The Council publishes a (4-fold 8.5 by 14-inch) brochure, You Can Have It All, touting life in northeast Queens Communities, including a map locating its member synagogues and institutions. The NEQJCC hosted the Sunday, October 27, 2002 Ben Yehuda Street Comes to Bayside Israeli Gifts Fair at Bayside Jewish Center, with Queens Region Hadassah and the Consulate of Israel, where thousands purchased direct from Israeli merchants and listened to Israeli entertainers.

Its annual programs include its Installation of Officers and Awards Breakfast each fall, the lighting of the largest Chanukah Menorah in Queens, a Purim Carnival at the Samuel Field YM&YWHA, and its annual Legislative Forum each Spring, co-sponsored by the the Metropolitan Council on Jewish Poverty, the Jewish Community Relations Council of Greater New York and Queens Region-Hadassah, at the Y.

A UJA-Federation beneficiary, the NEQJCC works closely with Metropolitan Council on Jewish Poverty ("Met Council") the Samuel Field Y, the Jewish Community Relations Council of Greater New York, and the Queens Jewish Community Council .
