SECRETARY

Jamie Allen Black is currently the Director of Philanthropy & Engagement at the Streicker Center, a hub for arts and culture in NYC. Previously, she served as CEO of the Jewish Women’s Foundation of New York (now Elluminate). Jamie shepherded the organization into a new way of being – supporting women social entrepreneurs solving intractable problems around the globe. Her commitment to giving voice to women is the reason Jamie chose to join the Board of Unchained. Jamie embodies 30 years of experience leading in the nonprofit arena. This history centers around promoting inclusive and diverse Jewish communities and mentoring both professionals and volunteers. In 2017, Jamie co-founded with another Unchained board member, Naomi Eisenberger, Executive Director of The Good People Fund, Ta’amod: Stand Up! – a Jewish communal response to gender harassment and abuse in the workplace. Jamie is a graduate of New York University and was honored with the Dean’s Alumni Award for Humanitarianism. She sings in the Community Choir at Central Synagogue and has a not-so-secret life as a voice actor.
