Building Strong Teams Through Purpose-Driven Hiring

Guest: Greg Rosenblit

In this episode of the Mighty MERP Podcast, host Melissa Rosenblum speaks with Greg Rosenblit, Chief People & Performance Officer at Jewish Family Service of Atlantic & Cape May Counties (JFS).

Greg shares how JFS is scaling its workforce while staying mission-driven — including how the organization recruits, hires, and supports professionals delivering essential social services across Atlantic and Cape May Counties.

The conversation explores modern nonprofit hiring strategies, workforce development, and the launch of new programs such as the Mental Health Diversion Program, which supports justice-involved individuals with serious mental health needs through community-based treatment rather than incarceration.

• Building people-first hiring strategies in a growing nonprofit

• Staffing new programs under tight grant timelines

• Recruiting clinicians and case managers in competitive markets

• Why human connection still matters in modern hiring

• How JFS supports employees through training, mentorship, and growth

This episode is especially relevant for:

• Job seekers exploring nonprofit or human services careers

• Leaders responsible for hiring, retention, and organizational culture

• Attorneys and professionals interested in mental health diversion initiatives
