Addressing Jewish Poverty at the Local Level – Continue the Conversation at NJHSA’s 2020 Annual Conference

Join us for Fighting Poverty and Enhancing Dignity in the 21st Century, the Monday plenary breakfast presentation. The Intensive Incubation Program of the NJHSA Jewish Poverty Challenge, an initiative of the Network’s Center for Innovation & Research, is completing year one with three deserving agencies who are eagerly attacking the challenges of developing a successful road map for their high impact and sustainable solutions to Jewish poverty.
Professor H. Luke Shaefer, the inaugural director of Poverty Solutions at University of Michigan, will begin by sharing his research on poverty and social welfare policy in the United States, which has been published in top peer-reviewed academic journals in the fields of public policy, social work, public health, health services research, and history. After he fields questions we’ll dive into a facilitated conversation led by StartCo President Andre Fowlkes with representatives from the three winning NJHSA agencies/communities: JFS Columbus; JFS Detroit, JVS Human Services, Detroit, Yad Ezra; JFCS Philadelphia.
