Welcome back to Just For This. Each week, host Rabbi Liz P.G. Hirsch (she/her) interviews women in leadership about women and leadership. Inspired by the story of Esther, we feature powerful stories of women who stand out in their fields, who have stepped up just for this moment. 

Our guest this week is Dr. Beth Oppenheim, newly appointed CEO to HIAS, the world's oldest refugee aid organization. HIAS draws on Jewish values and history to advocate for the rights of displaced people and helps them rebuild their lives. Oppenheim is HIAS' first female CEO in its over 120-year history.

Just For This listeners can also check out Jewish Women's Archive's Can We Talk. WRJ was recently mentioned in an episode focused on an exhibit at the Capital Jewish Museum on LGBTQ Jewish life and history. In 1965, WRJ was the first Jewish organization to call for the decriminalization of homosexuality, long before other Jewish organizations followed suit.
