Raising Children with Disabilities: Finding Our Way in the Jewish Community
JCC in Manhattan, 334 Amsterdam Ave
February 3, 2008, 9am-2:30pm


Many parents in the Jewish community have asked for more resources, more guidance, more ideas. This conference will focus on the unique challenges and opportunities of raising children with disabilities in the Jewish community.

Keynote speaker will be Rabbi Bradley Artson of Los Angeles, California, Dean of the University of Judaism Rabbinical School and father of an autistic child.

Following the keynote there will be opportunities for parents to engage in conversations around select topics of interest and to hear from leading professionals from synagogues and agencies in our community.

Babysitting is available for $20 per family. Space is limited. Please call Melissa Lader at 646.505.5729 for details or to reserve a spot.

Conference generously funded by UJA-Federation of New York.
