SRE Network Convening: Building Our Future Together
Tuesday, June 6, 2023: 4-6:45 pm ET
Wednesday, June 7, 2023: 9 am-4:30 pm ET
Bohemian National Hall, NYC
This year marks a major milestone: 5 years since the launch of SRE Network! What began as an idea - to create and sustain safe, respectful, and equitable Jewish workplaces and communal spaces for all, and to end gender-based harassment and discrimination - has since evolved to a network of over 160 Jewish organizations, a field-builder seeding $5 million in grants in 5 years, and a thought leader.
You are cordially invited to join us as we gather together in person for the first time since the pandemic. You will be in the company of fellow SRE Network members, grantees, funders, and practitioners, as together we will celebrate all that we have accomplished and SRE Network's 5 year anniversary as we look ahead to the timely work still to be done.
