They were also given the opportunity to tour Crisis Intervention Services, Career Services, Home Care, and the Benefits Access department.  

Attorney Jill Smith is a UJA-Federation of New York Board Member, serving as a member of the CoJIR (Commission on Jewish Identity and Renewal) Commission and Cabinet, and its Israel Task Force and the FSU Task Force.

Met Council annually participates in the “Executive for a Day” program to offer an up close and personal experience of the array of services offered at Met Council, an affiliate agency of UJA-Federation. This year, the theme for Executive for a Day is “Good Together,” the new brand platform for UJA-Federation.  

The Executive for a Day program brings together select donors and lay leaders to participate in an individualized, half-day visit to a UJA-Federation beneficiary agency where they will shadow a chief executive. Participants learn about the inner workings and challenges faced by the agency they visit. This important program is fostering a special bond among UJA-Federation, agency professionals, and prominent leaders of the community.
