Coalition for Jewish Values (CJV), representing over 2,500 traditional, Orthodox rabbis in American public policy, welcomed Chad (Chaim) Adler to the position of Director of Development. In this office, Adler will lead strategic and practical fundraising efforts through individual giving, corporate sponsorships and foundation grants.

“We anticipate that Chad’s vision and experience will fuel our continued growth as an organization,” said CJV Managing Director Rabbi Yaakov Menken, “and are delighted that he is bringing his passion for Judaism, interest in public policy, and background in development and organization to work for the CJV.”

A Missouri native, Adler’s background includes both charitable and business development along with legislative affairs positions in the Missouri governor’s office and on Capitol Hill. Most recently, he served as a Development Associate with the American Enterprise Institute in Washington, D.C., before returning to his home state.

“As a longtime follower and supporter of their work, it’s an honor to be joining the Coalition for Jewish Values,” Mr. Adler said. “I look forward to working with our growing network of more than 2,500 Orthodox rabbis across the country to ‘return the crown to its place’ by fighting for Torah values in public policy. I am grateful to Hashem and the Coalition for this opportunity, and to my wife and family for their support.”
