Take Your Leadership to the NEXUS Level

NEXUS 2025 is a program designed to develop rising Jewish leaders in their 20s and 30s who seek to build community, explore their Jewish values and philanthropy, and gain exclusive access to Federation’s network of established community builders and resources.

Federation’s Next Gen is pleased to introduce this year’s dynamic and diverse class of professionals who will come together for a multi-session program to enrich their leadership abilities, build community, and explore their Jewish values and philanthropy. Each session will feature distinguished community leaders and explore what it means to be inclusive leaders, the power of collective giving, and how to have hard conversations with their peers. Join us in congratulating the next generation of future leaders and changemakers!

NEXUS participants will walk away with a better understanding of what it means to be an inclusive leader in the Jewish community, the role Federation plays locally, the power of collective giving, and how to have hard conversations with their peers.
