Join us for an evening of community and connection. This group is designed to address the growing need in our community for support among single and divorced mothers and those raising children.

This group has been operating for over 10 years as a haven for women and their children. Whether you are considering a separation, in the process of getting divorced, or have finalized your divorce, all are welcome. Mothers who have chosen to be single, have been solo-parenting from the beginning, or have lost a spouse, are also welcome.

Each month features a different topic, providing women with an opportunity to connect and offer support to one another in a non-judgmental space. We occasionally host guest speakers.

*Pizza dinner and childcare are provided.

Tuesday, June 9 | 5 - 7 pm | $5

Important anniversary in American Jewish Life.

On June 3, 1972, Sally Priesand shattered centuries of exclusion when she was ordained by Hebrew Union College–Jewish Institute of Religion, becoming the first female rabbi in American history and the first woman ever ordained by a rabbinical seminary.

Only 54 years ago, this was a breakthrough that transformed Jewish leadership forever. We 💙 you Rabbi!
