Pull up a Chair. Join us in the Archives.

We have been reading family group chats, watching the news, and listening to the stories coming out of an ongoing conflict. We feel sorrowful, anxious, and afraid. 

We make some tea and coffee and take a seat at the table. We share what we know and the research we’ve done on the things we don’t. Elders are available for consultation. There is a lot to learn. The process is humbling, but restores our faith in civil discourse.

It is a gift to work in a place of learning. What a privilege to open our doors to people asking questions. We take solace in knowing that fear and anxiety are tempered by knowledge.

We extend our empathy to all those hurting right now. Inasmuch as we can be of service, we continue to be here to field your questions and support your curiosity. 

Zei gezunt. שמרו על עצמכם.
