.@SenatorMenendez, for #sbaPPP, we urge Senate to include >$250 billion in add'l resources + funds set aside for nonpublic sector + access to nonprofits >500 employees. These measures are critical to supporting communities during this crisis. @jfederations @NJ_NonProfits

The #CARESAct was a good start in recognizing and addressing the needs #nonprofits face now but more is needed. We urge @senatemajldr and @SenSchumer to pass legislation w/ >$250B for #SBAPPP w/ access for larger nonprofits. @jfederations @NJ_NonProfits

A recent survey showed that less than 15% of Jews could even identify a single Jewish community leader with a disability. Matan Koch addresses how to change that: jewishweek.timesofisrael.com… @Respect_Ability #JDAIM20 #JDAD
Proud to participate in @JDAD2020 today with colleagues, leaders and self-advocates from Greater MetroWest. #iamgmw #jdaim2020 @CRCofGreaterMW @waecenter @jewishfederations @jfedgmw
