Following the awful tragedy of the passing of Leiby Kletzky z”l, Chai Lifeline is offering four symposia – three tonight – open to the entire community. These symposia will address the hashkafic approach to crisis, understanding the process of trauma within ourselves and our children, and practical suggestions for safety in the future. The events will be followed by question-and-answer sessions.
The events are for men and women, with separate seating.
The Flatbush event will be broadcast online, and there will be an audio call in for Flatbush symposium at the Chazak hotline at 718.258.2008 /9/9. and the Boro Park symposium at Kol Mevaser at 212.444.1100 /2/2.
