Immigration and Absorption Committee
Message from our Co-Chairs:
"We have our work cut out for us; to look
beyond the current crises and develop new and
sophisticated directions for our work in both Israel
and abroad. To help achieve this goal, at the February
BOG meetings, we will engage all of our committee
members in brainstorming sessions. By bringing together the
experience of our veteran members with the fresh faces
and ideas of our newer members, we will begin a
process of developing new strategies and initiatives
designed to change the course of both immigration
and absorption." Carole Solomon and
Arieh Azoulay, Co-Chairs of the
Immigration and Absorption Committee.
