PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE  Dave Strauss
Welcome to our Website! The Southeast Council is comprised of almost 100 congregations throughout Florida, Alabama, South Carolina, Georgia, Eastern Tennessee, and the Bahamas. Our mission is to work with the congregations and to assist them in whatever we can, as they strive to obtain their goals.
The Southeast Region is lucky to have such strong professional leadership under Rabbi Linda Joseph, Joan Peppard Winograd and their staff. They are available 24/7. Thank you to all for your dedication to the largest Region in North America . . .

FEDERATION PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE Diane Michaels
As President of the South Florida Federation, I’d like to welcome you to our website! It’s with great enthusiasm that I begin my term of office, and I look forward to working in close partnership with David Strauss, President of the Southeast Council, and Rabbi Linda Joseph, our Regional Director.
Our Federation, though still part of the Southeast Council, comprises all of the Union congregations in Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties. Due to the large population in our area, the Federation was created to more efficiently provide Union services to our temples, and to better develop and sustain stronger relationships with our professional and lay leaders . . .

REGIONAL DIRECTOR'S MESSAGE
Rabbi Linda Joseph 
It is a great privilege to serve as the Regional Director of the URJ Southeast Council.
Our region has the largest number of congregations and is filled with a richness of diversity. Our congregations geographically extend from South Florida (aka “NY with palm trees”) to the deep history of Southern Jewry in Alabama, South Carolina, Georgia and Chattanooga, Tennessee, from the sophistication of the big city in Atlanta to the laid-back manners of the Bahamas. We are made up of temples that vary from historical and multi-generation congregations to those filled with Jews who have all moved from “somewhere else.” Read full text.
