The Network is pleased to announce the 2020 Annual Conference Awards. NJHSA is the leading voice for Jewish human service organizations – the go-to resource for advocacy, best practices, research & innovation and partnerships & collaborations; strengthening agencies so that they can better serve their communities and the people who need their help. As such we’ve designed this year’s awards around these core values, in addition to recognizing extraordinary member agency professionals and lay leaders.
Pillars of Excellence Awards
