The Marcus Jewish Community Center of Atlanta (MJCCA) is a secular, pluralistic nonprofit community center founded in 1910, originally as the Jewish Educational Alliance. Based in Atlanta, Georgia, it serves as a central hub for the metropolitan area, offering fitness, aquatics, early childhood education, camps, sports, arts and cultural programming to people of all backgrounds, ages and abilities. The organisation reports that it reaches more than 60,000 people annually and is among the largest and most comprehensive community centers in the Southeastern United States.

Its operations span a broad range of facilities and programmes. These include fitness and wellness facilities, pickleball complexes, and aquatic centres with indoor and outdoor pools. Education and youth programming cover preschools at three locations - Dunwoody, East Cobb and Sandy Springs - summer day camps, and Camp Barney Medintz, an overnight summer camp. The MJCCA also runs sports leagues, arts and cultural events (among them the annual Book Festival and Jerry's Habima Theatre), Jewish living and learning programmes, and specialised services for individuals with special needs.

The MJCCA describes itself as inclusive regardless of age, interest, ability, race or religion, and states a commitment to fostering meaningful connections within the community. Its geographic footprint covers the Atlanta metropolitan area, including Dunwoody, East Cobb and Sandy Springs, and extends across the Southeast.
