SUMMARY:Because Everybody Belongs--Ensuring That Individuals with Special Needs Are Included
DESCRIPTION:The Torah teaches that every Jew is created B’Tzelem Elokim\, in Hashem’s image and must be an accepted part of the synagogue\, school\, and greater community. But are we as Klal Yisrael successful in accomplishing this goal? Do our children and adults with special needs truly feel accepted by their fellow Jews? When they walk into shul are they welcome or just tolerated? How does the Kahal make the rest of the family feel?\n \nJoin two of Yachad’s professional staff who have lived this experience with their own children: the ups and downs\, the highlights and the disappointments.  In the process\, we can learn together how to open our community and our hearts to accepting every Jew!  \nPresented by:  \nAmanda Levy\, LCSW\, Clinical Director of Yachad \nBatya Jacob\, Development Executive of Yachad \nRabbi David Cohen\, National Director of Community Engagement \n \nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER. \n\n\n_________________________________________________________________ \n\n\nWe have created a new SPIRIT website with archives and upcoming programs!
