passion of International Board of Governors member Dr. Lynne B Harrison, we are able to create this
new initiative.”
Throughout the year, the LAPID cohort members will participate in two mandatory seminars
(December 2009 and spring 2010), site visits, monthly personal mentoring by a lay leader, bi-monthly
conversations with Hillel’s Director of Program Professional Development Nati Sperber, monthly Web-
based training, and “one-on-one” training when needed. This high level support is not only an
investment in furthering leadership, tzedek and engagement efforts on their respective campuses, but
also an opportunity to help strengthen professionals’ Jewish identity and self-confidence.
“One of my top goals for the coming year is to provide educational and outreach opportunities in order
to help Jewish students on their Jewish journeys,” said LAPID participant and Hillel of Metro Detroit’s
Director of Jewish Student Life Neil Cantor. “I believe as a professional, I should challenge students to
learn more about themselves and more about their Jewish community.”
