Meet Yisrael Klitsner, moderator of our new series Come Curious, Leave Wiser.

A fellow at the Jewish People Policy Institute (JPPI), Klitsner previously served as Diaspora Affairs Advisor to Prime Minister Naftali Bennett. He also has deep ties to Pittsburgh — he and his family lived in Squirrel Hill before returning to Israel after October 7 so he could rejoin his IDF unit.

📅 March 25: Klitsner will moderate a conversation on U.S.–Israel relations featuring Bret Stephens and Jeremy Ben-Ami.

This past weekend, we were honored to welcome Barak Hermann, President & CEO of the JCC Association of North America, to Pittsburgh. During his visit, Barak joined us at Big Night, met with members, supporters, donors, and staff, and spent time with our early childhood educators during their in-service training.

Across every conversation, his message was clear: the work we do today will shape Jewish life and community for decades to come. And as JCCs across the continent continue this work together, we’re reminded of the strength and solidarity that connects Jewish communities everywhere. 💙

Statement from the JCC of Greater Pittsburgh:

As a community rooted in connection, resilience, and care for one another, the JCC of Greater Pittsburgh shares in both the sorrow and the strength of our friends and neighbors in West Bloomfield and throughout Michigan. In moments like these, the bonds between Jewish communities across the country remind us that no one stands alone.

We are grateful to all of those who rushed to provide assistance in the face of great peril and to the JCC of Metropolitan Detroit for serving as the family reunification center, offering a place of safety, comfort, and support for those seeking to reconnect with loved ones.

We will continue to hold those impacted by this afternoon's attack in our hearts and reaffirm our commitment to supporting one another with compassion, unity, and hope.

Awaken Pittsburgh offers monthly guided meditations open to anyone. This is a chance to practice mindfulness in community together. Each session follows the same format: introductions, a period of guided meditation, and then a chance to support one another, discuss how our meditations are going at home, and ask any questions we have about practice.
