Safer Synagogues Pilot
We' ve been selected to be a pilot synagogue for JCARES (Jewish Community Abuse Resources Education & Solutions)- a coalition of Chicagoland Jewish and secular organizations, agencies, rabbis and advocates that collaboratively create, support and influence initiatives and policies to prevent, address and respond to abuse in Jewish homes, families and relationships. JCARES is administered by Jewish Child & Family Services. If you are willing to be part of the leadership team on this, let me know.
Understanding Spousal/Partner Abuse and Its Impact on Individuals, Families & Communities will be presented twice so that anyone who wishes to attend has an opportunity to do so. Clergy, professional staff, lay leaders, board members, and congregants - those who have limited knowledge, those who would like to refresh their knowledge, and those who would like to share their experience - are all encouraged to join in our conversation. Both sessions will take place at Jewish Child & Family Services, 5150 Golf Road, Skokie on:
SUNDAY, MARCH 14th -- 1:00-3:30 p.m.
OR
MONDAY, MARCH 15th -- 4:00-6:30 p.m.
We look forward to learning together and expect that this will be an informative, interactive session. Presenters include Rabbi David Rosenberg, Coordinator of Jewish Education for Jewish Child & Family Services and Bobbie Gordon, Community Educator for SHALVA. So that we can prepare the appropriate amount of snacks, materials and chairs, we ask that individuals register by emailing JCARES Training Liaison Betsy Lazerow (betsylazerow@jcfs.org <http://us.mc576.mail.yahoo.com/mc/compose?to=betsylazerow@jcfs.org> ) their name, congregation, congregational role, and date they will attend.
