A series exploring the stories of Israelis and Jewish Americans who are working to bring healing and resilience to their communities in the aftermath of October 7th. In our second installment of this series we will be having a conversation with Orly Erez-Likhovski moderated by Rabbi Deena Silverstone. Orly Erez-Likhovski is the Executive Director of the Israel Religious Action Center (IRAC), the legal and public advocacy arm of the Israeli Reform movement. Olry has served as an attorney at IRAC since 2004 bringing about significant legal achievements in Israel such as making gender segregation on public transportation illegal, ending the Orthodox monopoly on state-funded salaries to rabbis, winning the first ever class action suit regarding exclusion of women, and disqualifying racist candidates from running to Israel’s parliament.
