Robin Brandies is a mission-driven executive with extensive experience in leading non-profit organizations through growth, transformation, and innovation. As President and CEO of Jewish Family and Children’s Service of Greater Philadelphia (JFCS), Robin sets the strategic direction of the agency, stewards donor and community relationships, and ensures the delivery of vital programs and services that strengthen individuals and families throughout Greater Philadelphia.

Previously, Robin served as President and Executive Director of Abramson Senior Care which, for nearly 160 years, ensured that frail Jewish seniors aged with dignity, independence, and choice through access to healthcare services and supports.
