Moms’ Plight Spurs Action by Agencies (Correction)
Jonathan Wilner took the Disneyland photo that appeared with the October 24 East Village Mamele column.
The October 24 article “Moms’ Plight Spurs Action by Agencies” misidentified New York’s Metropolitan Council on Jewish Poverty. The Council is an independent organization with UJA-Federation affiliation.
Melissa Oringer was incorrectly identified in the October 31 article “Nice Jewitch Girls Leave Their Brooms in the Closet.” Oringer is a high priestess in the New Reformed Orthodox Order of the Golden Dawn.
Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.
I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.
— Joel Brown, Forward board chair
