He has served as an administrator with the Shlenker School of Congregation Beth Israel in Houston, Texas and as the director of congregational learning at Temple Sinai Congregation in Toronto, Ontario.

He was also the regional youth director at the JCCs of Greater Boston in Newton, Massachusetts.
“I am excited to meet with even more community leaders and a wide spectrum of community members to hear what they’d like the future of Harrisburg to look like,” Cohen said in the news release. “The Jewish Federation is already a great convener of different segments of the community and there are amazing people in leadership of the Jewish community - to take that to the next level is the goal, with even more support for learning, community, and connectivity.
