IAJGS survey

The International Association of Jewish Genealogical Societies (IAGS) is re-imagining its future conferences. They want to hear from everyone interested in Jewish genealogy. Whether you have attended IAJGS conferences in the past or not, your feedback will help them make future events more relevant, accessible, and engaging. If you haven't already done so, please take the survey at: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/IAJGS_conference_planning_m

Your responses will be private and anonymous and will only be used to improve future IAJGS conferences.
