JFS Jewish Disabilities Advocates Resources
As we approach the High Holy Days, our partners at JFS Jewish Disabilities Advocates encourage us to consider how we are fulfilling our own needs for social connections and challenge ourselves to ensure that others, especially those with disabilities who may be at risk of disconnection, also receive the benefits social connections provide.
Social Connection, Reflection, and Renewal in 5784
JFS Jewish Disabilities Advocates and the Blue Dove Foundation together prompt us to reflect on our own social connections amid the public health epidemic of loneliness and lack of connection, while also offering specific suggestions for supporting those who may be isolated or lonely.
