November 5, 2024 | 10:00 am - 12:00 pm Speakers Speakers

Join us for an intimate conversation with Rachael Cerrotti, an award-winning author, educator, and storyteller, as we explore the complex and multifaceted experience of grief. 

 

After losing her husband at just 27, Rachael turned to her grandmother’s story of survival, navigating her own profound loss while uncovering themes of loneliness, isolation, and the transformative power of memory. Rachael will be joined by Lesley Suchter, a social worker and certified bereavement educator with expertise in grief and trauma counseling. Together, they will delve into both universal concepts and personal experiences of grief, particularly in the context of mourning the Holocaust survivor generation and the shared Jewish experience of grief we have experienced over the past year. 

 

This program will create a space for meaningful discovery, as we collectively navigate the journey of grief—both as individuals and as a community.
