NAASE Kashrut

Dear Chevreh,

 

NAASE, the Conservative Movement's North American Association Of Synagogue Executives, has a yearly international convention.   This year's convention (November 15-20,  2008) is being shared with NATA, the Reform Movement's corresponding organization.  That's a wonderful synergy.  But the conference catering isn't Kosher.  (There is something like a "kosher option" for those who would choose.)  I hope you are as outraged as I am to discover that a professional association of Conservative synagogue leaders chose to forego kashrut at their national convention.  USCJ withdrew participation of its national and regional staff in reaction to the decision.  Both NAASE and your particular Executive Director should hear from you on the subject.  

 

Please contact the NAASE office to voice your response:
