If you see what needs to be repaired and how to repair it, then you have found a piece of the world that God has left for you to complete.

Menachem Mendel Schneerson

Why J Leaders?

Leadership can be developed, and J Leaders strives to provide meaningful opportunities for future Jewish leaders to grow and build continued growth into their approach. And, while we often look at great leaders as unique individuals, leadership is actually a team sport and J Leaders emphasize building a community of mutually supportive leaders which is so essential.
