JANUARY 26, 2021 SPOTLIGHT ON THE

INTERSECTION OF
BUSINESS AND PHILANTHROPY


RONIT RUBINOFF, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

LEGAL AID OF SONOMA COUNTY


You are invited to enjoy a conversation with Ronit Rubinoff, the Executive Director of  Legal Aid of Sonoma County, a 2020 Impact Grant finalist.  Ms. Rubinoff is the third speaker in our series of dynamic women whose individual career growth contributes to the community's overall wellbeing.


Ms. Rubinoff has marked her own career course in ensuring access to justice for the most vulnerable – low-income families, single mothers with children and the elderly.  As the Executive Director of Legal Aid of Sonoma County for 15 years, Ms. Rubinoff has led the organization with the help of dedicated boards, staff and volunteers to provide justice for thousands in Sonoma County.  

In 2005, Ms. Rubinoff was a transplant to Sonoma County as a poverty law attorney with no business experience and few community connections.  She has become a well-respected community leader and is currently managing a staff of 30. As many as 3,000 children and 2,000 adults are provided with crisis legal needs each year including: domestic violence, child and elder abuse, low-income housing, disaster recovery and legal obstacles to heath and employment. 

 Ms. Rubinoff has been recognized for her leadership role by the North Bay Business Journal and was selected in 2017 as the Woman of the Year by Congressman Mike Thompson.  We are looking forward to hearing her insights and a behind-the-scene look at one of our 2020 grant finalists.

 We will be meeting virtually via ZOOM on January 26, 2021, at 4:30 p.m.  Please feel free to invite a guest who would be interested in joining this discussion.
