Roundtables with Rachel
From Moment to Movement
Join us for one of the following roundtable discussions:
1) Tuesday, October 15, 1-2 pm ET/10 am PT (for CEOs/Executive Leadership) or
2) Tuesday, October 22, 1-2 pm ET/10 am PT (for all Jewish nonprofit professionals)
SRE Network was established during the #MeToo Movement to respond to an immediate need within the Jewish community – ensuring the safety, respect, and equity of our Jewish communal professionals, regardless of their gender or other marginalized identities. Today, SRE is excited to expand upon this work and build a movement deeply committed to advancing gender equity across the Jewish communal landscape.
Join us for one of two roundtable discussions with SRE’s new Executive Director Rachel Gildiner for a special opportunity to dig deep into what this looks like, and what it might take for you and your organizations to be a part of this movement at this unique moment in time. These interactive conversations, coinciding with the sacred period of reflection and renewal during the High Holidays, offer a valuable opportunity to take stock of where we’ve been and dream about where we can go – together.
Please select the roundtable that best fits your organizational role.
