Welcome to J-Fellows
J-Fellows, Federation’s young leadership program, aims to prepare the next generation of Jewish leaders. Collectively, we support young professionals through skill development, mentorship and opportunities for collaborative action.
J-Fellows is now harnessing the power of the virtual community, and has pivoted to an online platform.
With three focused and overarching goals: to learn, to lead and to contribute, you may opt in to programs that meet the needs of your personal leadership journey.
Join with other young Jewish professionals in your community, to learn, understand, and apply the principles and practices of adaptive leadership. This year, take the lead.
Co-chairs: Arielle Kreisman and Simone Davis
Our first virtual program is open for registration!
