Orthodox Caucus to be Hosted by Yeshiva University's Center for the Jewish Future
YU News - August 1, 2005
Aug 1, 2005 — The Orthodox Caucus, a
leadership group whose mission is to address challenges facing the
Orthodox community and the Jewish community at large, will relocate to
Yeshiva University’s Wilf Campus and be hosted by the Center for the
Jewish Future (CJF) of Yeshiva University (YU).
The Orthodox Caucus brings together prominent rabbis, roshei yeshiva
(professors of Talmud), educators, and lay leaders in common cause.
“Bringing the Orthodox Caucus into the YU sphere of influence will allow
top-tier Jewish leaders to draw upon the intellectual, spiritual, and
educational resources of YU and strengthen their contribution to the
Jewish community,” President Richard M. Joel said.
The Orthodox Caucus offers programs in approximately 10 communities
in the New York metropolitan area and beyond, as well as initiatives
that serve the community at large.
Fred Ehrman, chairman of the Orthodox Caucus, viewed the move to YU
as an important opportunity for the organization and the Jewish
community. “Our goal is to catalyze the Jewish community and its
organizations in practical and meaningful ways,” he said. “Over the
past 13 years, we have succeeded in spurring communities to action by
raising awareness and finding creative solutions to sensitive and
pressing issues. By partnering with YU, we hope to broaden the scope of
our efforts to strengthen Jewish life.”
The issues the Caucus has focused on include assisting parents with
developmentally disabled children; formulating policies for schools
regarding substance abuse; development of prenuptial agreements in
cooperation with the Beth Din of America and the Rabbinical Council of
America easing the plight of agunot (chained women); educating
communities about issues concerning the singles phenomenon; and guiding
parents and students in selecting yeshivot and seminaries in Israel
for post-high school studies.
The Orthodox Caucus has always challenged the Jewish community to
improve itself; creating initiatives that have helped strengthen our
moral constitution and commitment to the values articulated in our mesorah
(tradition),” said Rabbi Kenneth Brander, inaugural dean of the Center
for the Jewish Future (CJF). “The synergy created between the Caucus
and YU through CJF will enable us to deliver a more effective message of
leadership to our student community and at the same time enhance the
Center’s ability to serve the Jewish people.”
