The 2021 Board with our 2021 Professional Day Contributors
Professional Support
Central to LREDA's mission is active support and advocacy for religious educators. Ongoing advocacy and relationship building is inherent in the work of the Board and a lens through which all governance concerns itself. Contact Lauren, LREDA's current Professional Support portfolio holder for more information.
New! LREDA Cares Fund
We now have a Cares Fund to be used for non professional support for our membership, funded from our capital reserves. On a case by case basis, the Cares Fund can be used for reduced rates for dues or personal/health support and may not exceed $500 per case. Please reach out by email to any LREDA Board member if you are in need.
New! LREDA Member Resources Portal: Coming Soon!
This member's only resources website is expected to launch in September 2022. It will contain resources freely shared by LREDA Members including Times for All Ages, Worship Services, Sample Forms, and Curricula.
To add resources to the portal contact Juliet at admin@lreda.org
