Dear Fellow Alumni:
Welcome to the HLSA Jewish Alumni Network (“JAN”). JAN was created to provide a forum for Jewish alumni of Harvard Law School to connect with one another, to engage in meaningful dialogue about issues affecting our community, and to strengthen the ties between our Jewish and professional identities. Our goal is to build a network that supports alumni throughout their careers, fosters mentorship across generations, creates opportunities to learn from and with one another, and celebrates our heritage. We recognize that the experiences and perspectives of Jewish alumni are diverse, and JAN seeks to provide a space where those perspectives can be shared openly and inclusively. Through various programs, discussions, collaborations, and social events, we aim to contribute to the broader alumni community while also ensuring that Jewish voices and traditions are visible, valued, and sustained. As we continue to grow, I invite you to join us in shaping this network, whether by participating in events, offering ideas, or joining our Board. The strength of JAN will come from the breadth and depth of alumni involvement. I look forward to working together to ensure that JAN becomes not only lasting but also impactful in the lives of our alumni.
With warmest regards,
Pantea Yashar, HLS ‘04
President
