and for her years of leadership in our community.
   Ms. Rosen has been an active member of the Santa Barbara community 
for 50 years. She has long been a dedicated and active member of the 
Jewish Federation, which has been a strong force for good in the Santa 
Barbara community for many years. During her years of service, she has 
served as President of the Jewish Federation's Women's Division and 
currently serves on its Women's Planning Commission. In addition to her 
work with the Jewish Federation, Ms. Rosen is the director of the non-
profit Beyond Tolerance Education Center in Santa Barbara. This center 
has been a wonderful contribution to our community, working to teach 
thousands of school children about the causes, instruments, and dangers 
of discrimination and violence.
   Ms. Rosen has also served as a board member of CALM, which strives 
to prevent, assess and treat child abuse in Santa Barbara County, a 
sustaining member of the Women's Board of the Santa Barbara Art Museum, 
a life member of Hadassah and Congregation B'nai Brith Sisterhood, 
Friend of Ensemble Theater, and the Santa Barbara Symphony.
   Ms. Rosen's commitment to helping others and strengthening our 
community is truly an inspiration. May we all find the perseverance and 
passion that has inspired Ms. Rosen to leave her indelible mark upon 
our community.
