“My favorite part of the Washington Mission was traveling with such inspiring, Photo Credit: Wendy Pressner a WOMEN on MISSION! DESTINATION: DC Twenty-eight dedicated Federation women took their caring and commitment to a new level and a new location, heading to Washington, DC. On April 10-11, Mission Chairs Jill Deutch, Debra Halperin and Wendi Lipsich led the enthusiastic group through two whirlwind days to advocate on areas of great concern to the Jewish community: Charitable Giving Incentives, the Older Americans Act and women’s issues. dedicated women. I felt like we could make anything happen. It’s important to get involved, learn what’s going on and work to make things better in the Jewish community. It is our responsibility.” ~Lisa Marton Meryl Gallatin, Barbara Werner, April Leavy Before heading to the White House and the Hill, they prepared in-briefings with experts including William Daroff, JFNA VP for Public Policy, and Shelley Rood, of JFNA and the Association of Jewish Family & Children’s Agencies. With new information and confidence, the women then presented their concerns to Florida’s U.S. Senator Nelson, as well as a number of House Members from Florida. “Together, we learned how Federal dollars that benefit our local agencies are allocated, how current budget negotiations will impact our Federation’s partner agencies, and how to advocate on their behalf. We returned home bonded in shared passion and purpose, with new friendships as well as new tools to work toward strengthening the community we all love and care for.” ~Jill Deutch One clear highlight of the trip was having tea at the home of Sally Oren, a prominent advocate who is married to Michael Oren, Israel’s Ambassador to the US. The women also fit in a bit of time to see some DC sights, including private tours of the Portrait Gallery and Newseum, breakfast at the Library of Congress with Debbie Wasserman Schultz and Rabbi Shira Stutman, and a dazzling night tour of the monuments.
