Brooklyn Educators Network
About this Network:
Our network of Brooklyn-based Education Directors comes together for the purposes of sharing, problem-solving, and collaboration at regular roundtables. We will strive to create a forum where challenges can be brainstormed, programs can be co-planned, and resources can be shared.
Additional Information:
- This network is designed for folks who direct educational programs at congregations, JCCs, supplementary schools, youth-serving organizations, and more in Brooklyn.
-
We are meeting in-person, three times throughout the year in Brooklyn. Thank you for hosting us.
About the Facilitator:
Loen Amer has been an experiential Jewish educator working with teens since she was one herself! She has served at Temple Israel of Great Neck as the Director of Teen and Community Engagement, and at Bet Torah in Mt Kisco–first as their Director of Youth Engagement, and then as their Director of Experiential Learning for Children and Teens. Loen has also worked for Ramah Israel, the Hillel at Hofstra University, Woodbury Jewish Center, and Temple Beth Sholom in Roslyn Heights.
Loen has a voracious love for lifelong Jewish learning, and most recently studied Torah le’shmah, Torah for its own sake, at the Conservative Yeshiva in Jerusalem. She lives on Manhattan's Upper West Side and enjoys baking and reading.
