Leadership Council
A Leadership Council of no more than 35 members is nominated by the Board of Trustees and composed of the Congregation’s past Presidents, Clergy Emeritus, the Director of Jewish Learning and Living Emerita, Presidents of the Congregation’s Brotherhood, Parenthood, Women of Reform Judaism, B.O.F.T.Y (Boca’s Original federation of Temple Youth), and various other members of the congregation.
The Leadership Council provides guidance, ideas, and recommendations for the direction of the Congregation. They hold three meetings annually for:
- In-depth updates on the Congregation’s operations and plans;
- Deliberation and guidance on significant Congregation policy issues or decisions; and
- Learning about significant trends, issues and leading-edge ideas in the Jewish world.
