She brings her clients and partners an antiracist and anti-oppression lens which supports them to enter into charged conversations with bravery, compassion, and accountability, and to gain clarity on mission and vision.
Franny spent seven years at Brooklyn synagogue Kolot Chayeinu, as Director of Learning and Action supporting the growth of a broad-based anti-racist Jewish network, bolstering the congregation’s capacity for community-building across political differences on Israel and Palestine, and supporting a thriving intergenerational queer and trans-embracing community.
