SUMMARY:Bereavement Support Group
DESCRIPTION:Sinai Cares Staff Clinical Social Worker Deborah Gordis will be facilitating an 8-week adult bereavement support group\, beginning Monday October 20\, for individuals who have experienced recent loss due to the death of a parent\, sibling\, or spouse/partner. Bereavement groups allow those who have lost a loved one to share and process their grief with others who have experienced a similar loss. \nThe group will meet in person once a week on Monday mornings at 10:30 am; in cases of significant weather or illness challenges we will move to Zoom. The goal of the group is to provide a space for connection and healing within a safe and supportive environment. Group size is limited to 8-10 participants. \n\nIf you have questions about whether this group is right for you\, or if you would like to participate\, please reach out by email to Deb at dgordis@templesinaidc.org.

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.

SUMMARY:Bereavement Support Group
DESCRIPTION:Sinai Cares Staff Clinical Social Worker Deborah Gordis will be facilitating an 8-week adult bereavement support group\, beginning Monday October 20\, for individuals who have experienced recent loss due to the death of a parent\, sibling\, or spouse/partner.

The goal of the group is to provide a space for connection and healing within a safe and supportive environment. Group size is limited to 8-10 participants. \n\nIf you have questions about whether this group is right for you\, or if you would like to participate\, please reach out by email to Deb at dgordis@templesinaidc.org.

SUMMARY:CIESJ Presents: Israeli Public Opinion and Peace - Impediment or Excuse?
DESCRIPTION:While there is at least a tenuous ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war and the living hostages have been returned home\, constructing the foundation of a more durable peace remains far off. One impediment has been the much deeper issue of the Israeli public’s acceptance of a permanent occupation of the territories and the denial of self-determination for Palestinians. There is a stark disconnect between Israelis’ wish to preserve their democracy and the threat that a continuing occupation represents to that very democracy. How immutable is that sentiment? Is it amenable to change that would lead to an end of the conflict? And given that American Jewish public opinion strongly supports Palestinian self-determination\, what does that mean for the relationship between American Jews and Israel? Two experts in these issues will address how to move the needle in getting Israeli and American Jewish public opinion to align in supporting a long-term resolution of the conflict. \nThis is an in-person only event. A reception will follow the discussion. \nRegister \n  \nDahlia Scheindlin is a public opinion expert and international political and strategic consultant based in Tel Aviv. She is recognized for her contributions to discussions on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict; the peace process; and issues of democracy\, human rights\, and social justice. She conducts public opinion research related to the Israeli Palestinian conflict\, including the Palestinian-Israeli Pulse survey\, an ongoing project. She is a regular columnist at Haaretz newspaper (English)\, focusing on the Israel-Palestinian conflict\, Israeli politics\, and foreign affairs.  For fall\, 2025\, she is a Penn Global Middle East Distinguished Visiting Scholar at the University of Pennsylvania. \nJeremy Ben-Ami is the founder and President of J Street\, the home of pro-Israel\, pro-peace and pro-democracy Americans.  His family roots go back 140 years in Israel\, including the founding of Tel Aviv.  Prior to founding J Street\, Jeremy had extensive experience in U.S. national politics and public policy\, including work in several political campaigns and in the Clinton White House. \n  \n\n\nIn 2023\, Temple Sinai established the Committee for Israel Engagement and Social Justice (CIESJ) to grow Temple Sinai’s engagement in issues concerning Israel\, to support Israel’s as it strives to achieve its ideals as a Jewish and democratic State\, and to work with the wider Jewish community to achieve these objectives. Learn more.
