After a few years in Kansas, Helene Lotman is shedding the winter months for something a little more warmer — a life in Sarasota — as the newest CEO and president of the JFCS of the Suncoast.

Lotman, with over 30 years experience in diverse global business and organizational environments, will step into the role officially Jan. 1, 2023.

She’s currently the CEO and president of the Jewish Federation of Greater Kansas City. Lotman has been in that role since 2016. The former Sarasota resident also has a history in Palm Beach as the executive vice president of the Jewish Federation of Palm Beach, according to a statement.
