Why J Leaders?
As Jewish Young Professional, it is very important for me to engage in the Bay Area Jewish Community while continuing to navigate ways to enrich my strong Jewish identity. Community, Professional and Personal Development are key values of mine that help guide a myriad of aspects of my life. J Leaders makes it possible for those values to coexist. I am inspired by J Leaders commitment to Jewish Young Professionals – teaching and dedicating time through their various initiatives to allow us to be Jewish AND Young Professionals; not having to chose one or the other.
