From Pain to Purpose: Jewish Resilience, Healing, and Hope in a Post-October 7 World
In the wake of October 7 and rising antisemitism worldwide, Jewish communities are navigating profound grief, fear, and uncertainty while seeking meaningful ways to heal and move forward. Join Gesher Community Care, the Chicago Jewish Alliance, and Rhode Island Coalition for Israel for a virtual presentation in honor of Mental Health Awareness Month and Jewish American Heritage Month.
This conversation will feature clinical psychologists Drs. Shelly Steinwurtzel, Jessica Zmood, and Josh Simmons discussing Jewish resilience, mental health, identity, and post-traumatic growth in a time of rising antisemitism. Together, they will explore how Jewish tradition, community, and culturally competent care can help us process trauma, strengthen connection, and build renewed hope across generations.
