J. Shawn Landres (born 1972 in Los Angeles, California) is a social entrepreneur and independent scholar, known primarily for writing and advocacy related to religion and social innovation, especially in the Jewish community. As the co-founder of Jumpstart, a nonprofit philanthropic research organization,[1][2] he has worked with the White House on Jewish affairs and issues related to faith-based social innovation.[3][4][5][6] The Jewish Daily Forward named Landres to its annual list of the 50 most influential American Jews in 2009.[7]
A co-founder (with Rabbi Lawrence A. Hoffman) of Synagogue 3000's Synagogue Studies Institute,[8] Landres is credited with creating the term "Jewish emergent," which describes new spiritual Jewish communities whose institutional dynamic in which "relationship, not contract or program, is the driving metaphor;” the term “Jewish Emergent” is after a parallel movement in the Christian church.[9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] A 2007 report Landres co-authored with sociologist Steven M. Cohen and others linked Jewish emergent communities to social networking rather than institutional structures.[17] They argued that "Jewish emergent" encompasses both the independent minyan movement (which was supported by Synagogue 3000)[18] and so-called "rabbi-led emergent" communities such as IKAR and Kavana Cooperative.[19] In 2006, Landres co-convened the first gathering of Emergent church and "Jewish emergent" leaders in a meeting[20][21] co-led by theologian Tony Jones, who recounted the episode in one of his books.[22]
In July 2012, the White House invited Landres, representing Jumpstart, to speak as a "spotlight innovator" at its Faith-Based Social Innovators Conference.[23][24][25][26]
Landres currently serves as a commissioner on the Los Angeles County Quality and Productivity Commission.[27][28] Bill Clinton has identified him as the "young man" who suggested "Don't Stop" as the future president's 1992 campaign theme song.[29][30]
