If I am not for myself, who will be for me? If I am not for others, what am I? And if not now, when?

Rabbi Hillel, Pirke

Why J Leaders?

I was inspired by J Leader’s innovative approach to empowering young adults and creating meaningful impact from a framework of Jewish ethics. I’m excited to create engagement opportunities through the Leadership Forum that represent diverse voices and experiences in our community.
