JUFJ is led by a determined group of volunteers whose combined wisdom and talent helps to shape the organization and enhance its capacity to succeed. Within our membership are rabbis, labor activists, professional educators, community organizers, organizational development experts, and others who pool their expertise to make each of our programs and campaigns a success. These volunteers are supported by our staff and board of directors.
