Part of the series, The Dynamics of Change 

It’s human nature to build and rebuild, organize and disorganize. Institutions both large and small are grappling with the challenging tasks of shaping the present and future.  Rabbi Stephanie Ruskay, Associate Dean of The Rabbinical School, JTS, will lead us in a process of exploring communal narratives and asking provocative questions that help us discover solutions.  

Special guest speakers include Joy Friedman, Director of Organizing at Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism and Rabbi David Baum, Congregation Shaarei Kodesh. They will share their models of relational work and transformative change, helping us imagine a Jewish future in which we want to live.
