A Conversation on Modern Loss with Rebecca Soffer and Rabbi Baht Weiss

15 Feb @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm

THIS EVENT HAS BEEN POSTPONED AND WILL TAKE PLACE WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 15.

The Modern Loss Handbook: An Interactive Guide to Moving Through Grief and Building Your Resilience is what author Rebecca Soffer wished she had after her parents died, offering a welcoming space in which to grow thoughts and feelings as they evolve and create a personal roadmap toward resilience. With warmth, wit, and disarming humor, Soffer and Rabbi Baht Weiss will unpack the wisdom of the book and discuss how the long arc of loss can be woven into our lives in a way that is practical, creative, comforting, provoking, and, finally, hopeful.

The presentation will be in person and on livestream.
