SUMMARY:TSMRJ Book Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a discussion of The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store: A Novel by James McBride. (Note: This is instead of the previously announced selection\, The Commitments by Roddy Doyle\, which was not easily available.)  The story is a murder mystery set in a dilapidated western Pennsylvanian community inhabited by Jewish immigrants and African Americans\, both “(struggling) to survive at the margins of white Christian America and how damaging bigotry\, hypocrisy\, and deceit can be to a community.”   The DC and Montgomery County library systems have multiple copies of the book in various formats.  For more information\, contact Howard Oppenheim.

SUMMARY:YAWS Meeting
DESCRIPTION:We are a group of parents of young adults and teens who are struggling with life. Examples of such difficulties might be: isolation\, social difficulties\, school avoidance\, school failure or other learning differences\, vocational struggles\, inhibitions around launching and independence or strained relations with friends and family. Many struggle with mental illness\, learning disabilities\, Asperger’s\, substance abuse or autism. Some are undiagnosed\, just not living up to society’s expectations. \n\n\nWe meet once a month and support and encourage one another as we look at strategies for helping our young adults. We understand the journey\, which has many twists and turns\, often not what we expected when thinking about raising a child. We laugh\, cry\, share resources\, and support one another. Occasionally\, we have speakers join us and supplement our knowledge of resources available\, including housing options\, legal remedies\, new medications or treatments\, etc. \n\nThe group meets monthly and is open to anyone interested. All information shared is completely confidential. Should you have any questions\, please call the Temple Sinai office at (202) 363-6394.
