National Young Leadership Cabinet

National Young Leadership Cabinet represents the highest level of leadership development for men and women across the United States and Canada who have the potential to lead their local Federations. The most promising young leaders between the ages of 30 and 40 are nominated by their local Federation professionals to participate in this program, which culminates in an annual summer retreat. In order to be considered for membership on Cabinet, a demonstrated record of achievement is required, as well as the capacity to make a leadership level gift to your local Federation.

The National Young Leadership Cabinet of the The Jewish Federations is a community of 400 men and women at the highest levels of philanthropic commitment and personal performance, working and learning together as they master the skills needed to ensure a compelling Jewish future.

Cabinet members go on to become national Jewish Federation Chairs, Federation leaders, political office holders and Jewish community activists.  Cabinet members serve as role models, educators, and leaders in their own communities and on the national level, imparting Jewish values by encouraging a knowledge of the Jewish past and a concern for the Jewish future.

Cabinet members develop leadership skills through workshops and opporttunities
