Participants in the 2018-2019 ADL Philadelphia Glass Leadership Institute (GLI) class graduated June 12th in a special ceremony.

ADL’s Glass Leadership Institute is a nationally recognized leadership development program for a select group of young professionals hosted in 24 regions across the United States. Over the course of nine months, GLI members participate in 10 interactive sessions lead by ADL professionals on a broad range of ADL topics, including civil rights, education, extremism, development and more.

This year, ADL Philadelphia enrolled 20 young professionals in the 2019 class and presented each one a diploma to signify their graduation from the program at Wednesday’s ceremony.

The graduates were addressed by Regional Board Chair Alan Gubernick, Associate Board Co-Chairs Faye Hellman and Mona Slomsky and Assistant Director, Young Leadership and Digital Engagement Andrea Heymann. All of the speakers touched upon the importance of engaging young leaders that are committed to ADL’s mission – to stop the defamation of the Jewish people and to secure justice and fair treatment to all.
