Uncertain Waters: Relationships, Parenting, and Staying (Mostly) Sane in Challenging Times, A Conversation with Rabbi Adam Greenwald and Alison Shlomi

7pm PDT


Physical distancing and global crisis put tremendous stress on our relationships, challenge parents in unprecedented ways, and stir up feelings of grief, anxiety, and panic while taking away the routines that we rely on. Join us for a wide-ranging conversation between Alison Shlomi, LCSW, and Rabbi Adam Greenwald, Vice-President for Jewish Engagement at AJU on developing the psychological and spiritual tools to navigate these uncertain times.
