NCJW: The Next Generation, with NCJW CEO Sheila Katz
Sheila Katz is the CEO of National Council of Jewish Women (NCJW), a Jewish feminist civil rights organization that has been working for equity and justice for women, children, and families for 130 years. Since becoming CEO, Sheila has led the organization to more than double the number of NCJW advocates to over 210,000 strong working collectively to ensure that the rights of women, children and families are protected, translated into public policy and upheld in our courts.
Through meaningful education, strategic advocacy and supporting the 50+ local NCJW sections in direct service, Sheila works to empower Jewish women and allies to engage in work that impacts those at the margins of society while centering the most impacted through partnerships and coalitions.Under Sheila’s leadership, NCJW has responded to threats to abortion access, voting rights, childcare access, equal pay, and other issues of equity through protest, advocacy and new campaigns making it clear where Jewish women and allies stand on the most important issues of the day. Sheila spearheaded the creation of Jews for Abortion Access, and the launch of “Rabbis for Repro,” a network of more than 2,000 Jewish clergy teaching and preaching about reproductive justice and Judaism.
