Biographical Sketch: Joyce S. Dubensky is the Executive Vice President of the Tanenbaum Center for Interreligious Understanding, an organization that puts interreligious understanding into practice to reduce the verbal and physical conflict so often perpetrated in the name of religion. Tanenbaum programs have a broad impact in settings where respect for pluralism is needed most: in schools, workplaces, healthcare facilities, armed conflicts and the public arena. Ms. Dubensky leads the expansion of the Religious Diversity in the Workplace program and its Religion and Healthcare initiative, which trains providers in pragmatic ways to address religion in healthcare. Ms. Dubensky is an experienced speaker and facilitator and holds her J.D. from New York University School of Law, where she graduated with honors. She also has a Master’s degree in American History (with an emphasis on Minority Studies) from Adelphi University. Currently, she serves on the Board of Advisors for the Center Against Violence in the Family.
