  • From Bondage to Healing: Freedom to Grieve and Rebuild w/ the Haberman Institute

    RSVP for Woodley Park address. , United States

    The Haberman Institute is honored to welcome the volunteers behind the Shiloni Project, back to our community. This grassroots organization was formed immediately after October 7, 2023, by volunteers initially committed to supporting soldiers and evacuees. We invite you to learn how the Project has evolved to focus on the needs of hostage families–parents, siblings, children, and spouses–some of whom have returned, while others remain in captivity.

These families have devoted themselves entirely to fighting for their loved ones, postponing their own healing after experiencing profound loss. While some continue the fight, others are just beginning their long journey of recovery.

    Register to learn about the Shiloni Project's key initiative: therapeutic retreats on the peaceful island of Pilion, Greece, gifting hostage families a chance to esca
