Hillel professionals at gala reception.
Hillel's 2007 International Professional Conference was attended by more than 700 professionals, volunteer leaders, partner agencies, presenters and teachers.
President Wayne L. Firestone's opening remarks included the announcement of a newly published resource guide for Hillel directors designed by fellow professionals to welcome Jewish LGBTQ students on campus.
The Hillel LGBTQ Resource Guide received positive press coverage from the Washington Jewish Week, the Forward and the nation's most widely read gay magazine, the Advocate.
Additionally, Hillel professionals spent four days engaged in study and celebration. Hillels on six campuses were honored with the 2007 Hillel's Vision and Values Awards which support the key components of Hillel's Strategic Plan. Six campus professionals were honored for recently achieving employment milestones.
