Jen, who is CEO of the Jewish Federation of Southern New Jersey, oversees 1,600 employees and a handful of agencies under the JFSNJ umbrella. “What I love about the Federation is that we’re able to see needs in the community and respond. When there were people in need of food, we opened a food pantry. When people were in need of socialization for their senior loved ones, we opened a lifelong learning program. We adapt to the needs of the community.”
“All of this was built on values and on passion,” she adds. “I feel it’s our responsibility to take care of one another.”
