    The Jewish Education Council of Alameda and Contra Costa Counties was established as an agency of the Jewish Federation of the Greater East Bay to help standardize, develop, and maintain the education of the Jewish community in the East Bay. Rabbi Sidney Akselrad, President of the East Bay Board of Rabbis, was a chairman of the Jewish Education Council of Alameda and Contra Costa Counties at its inception. He was chairman when they invited Seymour Fromer to become the founding director of the organization. The Jewish Education Council operated approximately from the 1950s to the 1980s.
