Join the Jewish Future!

GAParticipants at this year's Jewish Federations of North America's General Assembly (GA) in New Orleans will have a unique opportunity to imagine and shape the future of Jewish education and the Jewish community.

On November 8th, the GA will host the first-everJewish Futures Conference. This extraordinary event will bring together visionary thinkers, passionate leaders, and fresh voices to chart a course for the future of Jewish learning and life.  "The goal of the conference," stated Harlene Appelman, Executive Director of the Covenant Foundation, one of the event's co-sponsors, "is to excite and stimulate thinking about the potential of creative and thoughtful Jewish education."  The conference will do this, according to David Bryfman of New York's BJENY-SAJES, a co-sponsor, "by providing a space to dream, learn, and engage in purposeful conversation.  At a time when the Jewish community is at a crossroads, this is an ideal opportunity to showcase some of the best thinking in the Jewish educational world."
