For those raised outside of the Jewish faith, learning about Jewish traditions — including those surrounding end-of-life — is key to nourishing interfaith relationships, and also to advancing the conversion process.

Fifteen years ago, Rabbi Lisa Rubin joined Central Synagogue in New York City and established the Center for Exploring Judaism, a structured space for such journeys. The Center partners with Plaza Jewish Community Chapel to deepen end-of-life conversations for participants.

Rabbi Rubin speaks with Exit Strategy Host Stephanie Garry about the genesis of the Center, the focus on end-of-life topics in the program, and the individual and communal impact.
