Born in Safed and raised in an Orthodox environment, Yochi Rappeport served IDF as a commander in the Nativ Military Course teaching Judaism and Zionism to new immigrants and non-Jewish soldiers. Following her military service she studied at Bar Ilan University. She joined Women of the Wall in 2016 as Director of Education and Community Outreach and in 2019, was appointed Executive Director of the organization.
