Jamie Simon — Stories From Camp

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 Jamie Simon, the first female CEO of Foundation for Jewish Camp. Her organization is the only nonprofit whose singular mission is to grow, support, and strengthen the Jewish camp movement.

We discuss the power of camp, the formation of Jewish role models, and creating a safe, healing place for Jewish children.
