We are so excited to welcome Rebecca Schwartz as our new Membership and Engagement Manager. Here is a message from Rebecca:
Rebecca is so excited to be returning to the Reform Jewish world. She has been a Jewish communal professional for nearly her entire career, with passions for social justice and Jewish education.
Rebecca spent several years at the URJ in the early 2000's and worked locally in the San Francisco Bay Area in both synagogue and JCC life. She is the proud parent of a rabbinical student at HUC Los Angeles and a social work student at UW Seattle. She loves hiking in the redwoods, reading a book with a cat on her lap, playing mah jongg, and volunteering in her local community.
She is looking forward to coming back to her roots and supporting our Jewish educators.
We are so excited to welcome Sivan Buchris as our new Marketing and Communications Coordinator. Here is a message from Sivan: 
Sivan Buchris joins ARJE as Marketing and Communications Coordinator, bringing a background in storytelling, social media, newsletters, and community engagement. Most recently she led marketing and communications for a Los Angeles Hebrew-language school, where she produced newsletters, managed social media, and served as a warm first point of contact for families. Jewish communal life has shaped Sivan for as long as she can remember: she grew up with a mother in Jewish education and a father at the Jewish Federation, and she's thrilled to bring that passion to ARJE, where she hopes to help Reform Jewish educators feel seen, celebrated, and connected. She looks forward to getting to know this community and helping tell its stories.
