In our AGM of December, 2022, CJPME had the honour of welcoming six brilliant new individuals to our Board.  This dynamic group will join our existing Board to begin a new era for the organization, expanding our impact and reach.  As a first step in revitalizing our work, the Board will work with CJPME staff and volunteers in the months ahead to develop a new strategic plan for the organization. Read the bios of our Board leaders below, and please join us in giving a hearty welcome to the newcomers, and in thanking our long-serving veterans.   2023 will be an important year for CJPME, as we respond to Israel's dangerous right-wing government, and its brutal oppression of Palestinians.
