National Affinity Group on Jewish Poverty Presents: A Series of Briefings on Poverty and the Impact of Covid-19

WHEN
Tuesday, July 07, 2020, 12:00pm – 1:00pm EDT

Join us for an important conversation with the leaders of the Jews of Color Initiative COVID-19 Emergency Relief Fund. The session will provide an overview of the needs of vulnerable Jews of color and Jewish communal professionals of color amid the pandemic. In addition, panelists will share lessons learned from initial funding rounds and highlight opportunities for how the Jewish community can better support Jews of color moving forward.

This is part of the National Affinity Group on Jewish Poverty's ongoing series of webinars and virtual meetups to discuss the many challenges the coronavirus pandemic has created for Jews facing poverty and the agencies that serve them. In this series, we hear the needs from the service providers on the ground supporting our front lines, share best practices and information, and strategize on ways to respond collectively. Watch the previous briefings in this series here.

Each webinar is moderated by Susan Ditkoff of The Bridgespan Group Boston. 

Introductions will be made by Paula B. Pretlow, Trustee, The Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Foundation.
