JCARES
Jewish Community Abuse Resources, Education, & Solutions
JCares has invited our congregation to be part of the Partnership for Safer Synagogues 2012 class. This initiative is our opportunity to learn more about issues that impact our families - healthy relationships, intimate partner abuse, teen dating violence, keeping children safe, and mistreatment of elders. Participation in the program will expand our congregation's capacity to be a source of spirirtual strength and guidance. Interested in being a member of the leadership team that engages in Safer Synagogues educational sessions, activities and dialogues?
