Mission

Advancing Women Professionals & the Jewish Community is a catalyst for change

Our mission is to advance Jewish women into leadership, stimulate new models of shared leadership, and promote policies that lead to healthy, effective workplaces.

Since 2001, AWP has curated and created initiatives that advance the leadership of women professionals and involve men in building an equitable, inclusive Jewish community.

AWP is evolving now – from a catalytic intervention in the system to a network of catalysts. We are sharing our model and methods with many partners and allies.

By the end of 2015, the work will be carried forward by our catalysts and AWP will come to a close as a stand-alone organization.

We believe that this shift will galvanize new commitment and deepen our impact, as individuals and organizations integrate AWP’s values and practices into their own policies and behaviors.
