Join us for a transformative day of empowerment and enlightenment at the “Jewish Women and Religious Freedom: Knowing & Fighting for Our Rights!” conference, taking place on December 3, 2023, from 9:00 am – 3:30 pm at the Temple Beth Emet in Cooper City, Florida. This in-person gathering brings together passionate advocates, thought leaders, and inspiring voices to explore the intersection of Jewish identity, religious freedom, personal power and public policy. 

Our esteemed lineup of speakers and panelists includes: Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Supreme Court Justice Barbara Pariente (ret), Vice Mayor of Broward County and former State Senator Nan Rich, Mona Reis, Michele Eiger, Laura Rodriguez, Denise Lettau, Kristen Browde, Sage Cassell-Rosenberg and more! 

This conference centers women and all marginalized genders in the fight for real religious freedom. Our keynote and special guest speakers will address what is happening in Florida and around the country in the fight for our rights in the courts, the government and on the ground. Throughout the day, attendees will also have the opportunity to engage in dynamic smaller breakout sessions covering crucial topics such as reproductive rights and the Florida ballot measure, public education, implicit bias, grassroots advocacy and organizing and the power of personal stories. These sessions will provide a platform for open dialogue, education, and the sharing of strategies and ideas to effect meaningful change.
