Originally from Philadelphia, Rabbi Mindie Snyder has lived and worked throughout Arizona for twenty years, with forays in the Midwest and West Coast.

 

Rabbi Snyder brings the JCRC many years experience as a program innovator and organizational executive, advancing initiatives in the arts, health and human services, as well as rabbinic and spiritual care. Throughout her career, she has attended to the creative, psychological, and spiritual needs of people across the lifespan, building bridges between cultural and religious boundaries across rural and urban environments.

 

In addition, Rabbi Snyder has been a requested media spokesperson for public health issues such as aging, end of life, at-risk youth and families, in addition to relevant concerns of the Jewish community. Her academic research highlights the revitalizing and unifying powers of hospitality, in contrast to the public health hazards of hostility and hate.
