SRE Network

🎉 On today's #InternationalWomensDay we celebrate the 6th anniversary of SRE Network. In just six years, SRE has: ✨ Grown to a network of over 175 member organizations ✨ Invested $6 million in countless Jewish workplaces and communal spaces ✨ Convened hundreds of professionals and lay leaders in virtual learning sessions and 5 annual convenings ✨ Published groundbreaking research ✨ Connected organizations to educational resources, trainings, and each other We are grateful to all of our supporters who helped make SRE Network a reality. There is still much to do as we work to create a future free of gender-based harassment and discrimination, a future where our workplaces and communal spaces are safe, respectful, and equitable for all. Thank you for being on this journey with us.

Wishing you a meaningful #YomKippur. G'mar Chatimah Tovah–may you be sealed in the Book of Life. SRE will be closed in observance of Yom Kippur beginning at 2pm ET on Friday, October 11, and in celebration of Indigenous People's Day on Monday, October 14.

Today, we wrap up our series of reflection questions and prepare for #YomKippur this weekend. Wishing everyone a meaningful Yom Kippur, G'mar Chatimah Tova. #AseretYmeiTshuvah: How can I personally use the process of restorative justice to repair harm in Jewish spaces? ~This series of prompts has been inspired by "Reflections on Restorative Justice: The Messy Magic": https://lnkd.in/eXQ9RgCy

We invite you to read a new op-ed by Dr. Guila Benchimol and Dr. Alissa Ackerman that explores the vital role of restorative justice processes across the Jewish community. During this high holiday season, this piece calls for reflection, accountability, and actionable steps to support survivors and create safer Jewish spaces for everyone. https://lnkd.in/ehQrBWSd
