They will bear witness to the alarming surge in settler violence and highlight the crucial role they play in responding to it on the ground. \nJoin us to hear their stories and testimonies\, learn about their vital work\, and find out how you can be part of the effort to protect Palestinian communities and hold settlers accountable.​​ \n \nAccommodations: None \n \nOrganization: New Israel Fund \n \nLivestream or Virtual: No\, it’s not

SUMMARY:Healing Together: Overcoming Trauma Through Advocacy and Dialogue with the JCRC
DESCRIPTION:Nearly three years since the October 7th attacks\, the Jewish community continues to grapple with profound loss\, trauma\, and how to move forward in an ever-changing landscape at home and abroad. \nThe ongoing war in Iran\, the widening political divide\, and the rising level of antisemitism have added to our collective anxiety. How can we channel these emotions and overcome adversity through fellowship\, advocacy and dialogue? \nJoin us for a thoughtful conversation on how trauma impacts individuals and how it reverberates across families\, communities\, and the global Jewish population. \nRenowned trauma expert Dr. Miri Bar-Halpern and Jewish Women International Chief Executive Officer Meredith Jacobs in conversation with JCRC President Galia Messika Greenberg\, will discuss trauma and post-traumatic growth. Together\, they will weave together clinical insight with lived experience\, offering a deeper understanding of how trauma shapes individuals and communities — and how healing can begin. \nWe’ll also explore the critical role of advocacy in responding to and addressing that trauma — chiefly through the lens of JWI’s I Believe Israeli Women campaign\, which has worked to elevate awareness of gender-based violence\, support survivors\, and ensure that the experiences of Israeli women are seen\, heard\, and believed. \nGrounded in Jewish values of communal responsibility and care\, this program invites participants to consider: What does it mean to truly “show up” for one another after tragedy? How can we support survivors\, hold space for pain\, and foster resilience within our own circles? And how do we move\, collectively\, from grief toward meaning and renewal? \nThe venue will be shared with registrants 48-72 hours before the event. \n \nAccommodations: ADA Accessible Venue \n \nOrganization: Jewish Community Relations Council of Greater Washington \n \nLivestream or Virtual: No\, it’s not

SUMMARY:Exploring the Blurry Borders of Eastern Europe with JRI-Poland and JGSGW
DESCRIPTION:Zoom meeting\, free for members of JGSGW. Nonmembers may register to attend for a fee of $10. \nThere is an old Jewish joke that “my grandpa” was born in Poland\, went to school in Russia\, became bar mitzvah in Hungary\, married in Austria\, died in the USSR and is buried in Ukraine — but never left town during his life! Europe’s changing borders and empires may make it difficult for you to decide where to look for your family’s records in the Old Country. Understanding what’s in the JRI-Poland database and learning how it might help your own family research is the subject of this lively presentation which will include demonstrations and end with a questions-and-answers session that is usually quite lively. Bring your questions and ask an expert on the JRI-Poland website and database! \nThis one-hour program\, conducted over Zoom at 1:30 pm EDT\, is free for members. This is one of the many activities that is a benefit of JGSGW membership. \nRobinn Magid is the president of JRI-Poland.org and has served as a JRI-Poland volunteer for 31 years. She is the project manager for JRI-Poland’s “Next Generation” website and database and is a popular speaker and writer on Jewish Genealogy topics. Robinn has served as the chair of two landmark international conferences for the IAJGS (International Association of Jewish Genealogical Societies) Warsaw (2018) and the first virtual IAJGS conference (2020 during Covid). She is a recipient of the IAJGS Lifetime Achievement Award and of a civic medal from her paternal grandmother’s hometown of Lublin\, Poland.\nCost Range: $0 – $10 \n \nAccommodations: Captioning \n \nOrganization: Jewish Genealogy Society of Greater Washington \n \nLivestream or Virtual: Yes\, it is

SUMMARY:Empowering Mental Health Providers to Confront Antisemitism with the JCRC
DESCRIPTION:(This program is intended for mental health providers only.) \nIn the last few years\, Jewish mental health professionals have experienced an alarming increase in antisemitic language and actions from clients and colleagues\, at professional conferences and within professional associations. \nSocial workers\, psychiatrists\, psychologists and others in the mental health field are grappling with how to best respond to these situations — or whether to respond at all — while maintaining professionalism and preserving their Jewish identity. \nJoin us Sunday\, June 7th in Bethesda\, MD for a morning of compelling conversation with professionals who are at the forefront of this issue. We will be joined by clinical psychologist Miri Bar-Halpern\, PsyD\, Director of Trauma Training and Services with Parents for Peace.
