Jewish Family Service of Seattle is constructing a new building. Follow their progress via updated weekly photos.
Jewish Family & Children's Services of East Bay used an innovative format for their 2009-2010 Annual Report. JF&CS of East Bay's story is best told by those who are served, so rather than distributing a lengthy printed report; JF&CS produced a video featuring a small sampling of their diverse clients. The video is accompanied by a downloadable booklet with information about their leaders, finances, and generous supporters.
JSSA (Jewish Social Service Agency) has promoted Lise Bram to Chief Marketing Officer and has named Mark Strassman the agency’s new Senior Director of Operations, Employment and Career Services (ECS). Both appointments became effective July 1.
Bram will become part of JSSA’s senior management team with responsibility for developing and implementing a strategic marketing and communications plan. Strassman will focus principally on growing programs by developing new business relationships, job development, supported employment, career coaching, and related services.
Bram, a Silver Spring, Md., resident, will mark her 10-year anniversary with JSSA this year. She has served as Director of Marketing and Communications during a period of growth in her department. Bram has worked closely with JSSA’s senior management and board of directors on marketing and outreach strategy; has introduced the agency-wide "Think JSSA" brand, has led JSSA’s website redesigns, and has overseen an increase in JSSA's local and national visibility.
Ken Kozloff, JSSA’s CEO, said, “Throughout her tenure, Lise has proven to be a phenomenal asset to our organization, promoting JSSA’s diverse services, while also actively networking with many local agencies in cross-promotion, partnership-building and program development.”
In ECS, Strassman, a Potomac, Md., resident, brings to JSSA over 20 years of experience as a business leader and executive recruiter. Strassman also has an extensive background in the development and execution of business and marketing plans as well as in developing and implementing strategic plans for staff development, hiring and mentoring.
“We have confidence that Mark’s business background and leadership will help JSSA’s services achieve even more for those seeking work in the current competitive job market,” Kozloff said.
