She has taught widely on the intersection between Judaism and Disability at numerous synagogues and organizations throughout North America, including the National Havurah Committee, Jewish Theological Seminary, Join for Justice, the Ruderman Foundation’s Synagogue Inclusion Initiative, Oceanside Jewish Center and Adas Israel Congregation. Lauren has been published widely including in Jewschool and RitualWell. She was named to the Jewish Week’s 36 under 36 in 2017.
