Thank you for giving today, and helping us co-create their tomorrow.
Inclusive education ensures that every child, regardless of ability, feels valued, supported, and empowered to learn. From preschools to congregational schools to summer camps, fostering belonging across educational settings enriches the entire community. We are deeply grateful for Liora Brosbe, Senior Educator, whose expertise in inclusion has transformed countless lives and learning environments, strengthening Jewish education for all in the Bay Area and beyond.

Donate in Honor of Liora Brosbe

For five years, Jewish LearningWorks’ flagship special needs inclusion initiative has flourished under the leadership of Senior Educator, Liora Brosbe. Liora’s deep commitment to full inclusion for all has facilitated more children being embraced by the Jewish community, regardless of individual needs or learning styles.
During her time at Jewish LearningWorks, Liora has not only overseen our custom training, student observation/consultation, and sensory toolkits, but has also been a staunch advocate for diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging in all aspects of Jewish life. Liora’s unique experience as an educator, MFT and drama therapist, has taught all of us important lessons about social emotional learning, trauma informed teaching and the importance of laughter. Though she is leaving Jewish LearningWorks, the impact of her work, and her countless stories will remain with us. Thank you Liora!

Not only is Liora a fantastic resource of knowledge and skills, but she is also a learner and a questioner herself. She lives and breathes the work that she does: helping educators build more inclusive, diverse, and accessible Jewish communities for all learners.
