The Karsh Journalism Fellowship equips journalists to report with depth, rigor, and clarity on Jewish issues in the United States and around the world. Fellows participate in three intensive retreats — in Los Angeles, New York, and Washington, D.C. — engaging with leading journalists, scholars, policymakers, and innovators across the arts, media, and business.

As the world’s only journalism fellowship solely dedicated to Jewish topics, the program is resolutely nonpartisan and grounded in the principles of accuracy, independence, transparency, and accountability. Up to ten fellows are selected annually to advance public understanding through uncompromising, high-impact reporting. This is a non-partisan fellowship that is not chiefly concerned with activism. It is for early and mid-career journalists to develop an understanding of how to report in an unbiased way on Jewish issues. Applicants do not need to be Jewish.

Overview

Sinai Synagogue seeks an interim or full-time pulpit rabbi to replace our current rabbi, who is retiring after 30 years. This position is a wonderful opportunity for a rabbi who wants to join and lead a passionate, tight-knit congregation with a high degree of member involvement. We are eager to support a caring, wise, and flexible leader who is also a good listener—somebody who is excited about helping to shepherd our diverse, engaged community. While a majority of our congregants identify as Conservative, reflecting our synagogue’s historical affiliation with the Conservative movement, some members identify as Reform, Reconstructionist, Renewal, Traditional, nondenominational, secular, and “just Jewish,” and the personal characteristics and values of our new rabbi are more important to us than any particular denominational affiliation.

We look forward to collaborating with a rabbi who shares our values of inclusion and heartfelt practice and is excited about leading a nonjudgmental “big-tent” community: a congregation of people drawn to Judaism—with a range of backgrounds and practices—who feel that they truly belong, and where everybody has the opportunity to deepen their engagement with our traditions.
