Regional Groups

A valuable and evolving professional resource lies in the far-reaching network of nineteen regional groups that span the United States and Canada. Executive Directors with common geographic bonds meet regularly with colleagues from different sized congregations, often including Reform, Reconstructionist and Orthodox Directors.

A variety of scheduled monthly or quarterly midday meetings (generally luncheons) bring speakers on special topics to the groups, focused timely discussions, opportunities to enter into collective agreements of mutual congregational benefit, demonstrations of available technology and other administrative know-how.

Each group operates autonomously and decides its own agenda and policies. But the feedback is always good... meetings are well-attended and programs are diverse. We urge all NAASE members to inquire from the contact person listed below, about the closest regional group and the schedule of activities for the coming year.

For more information about the program of Regional Groups, or to assist in establishing groups in areas not currently served by such groups, please contact NAASE's Regional Group Chairman, Donald Kaye, at (404) 257-0537 or by e-mail at Execdir@BnaiTorah.org.
