Jewish? Thinking about starting or growing your family?

Did you know one of every 40 Jewish men and women of Ashkenazi ancestry carries the BRCA genetic mutation, which leads to an increased lifetime risk of developing breast, ovarian, pancreatic, prostate and other cancers?

Learn about the BRCA positive gene mutation and its impact on family planning during a Zoom webinar presented by Yodeah on Monday, March 27 at 7:30 p.m. Panelists will include two couples who learned they were BRCA-positive and took steps with respect to family planning, as well as Yodeah founder Dr. Elizabeth Etkin-Kramer and in vitro fertilization specialist Dr. Vanessa Weitzman.

The Art, Music, and Poetry of the Holocaust with Dr Robert Watson

It was not enough to simply try to stay alive. Many noted Jewish intellectuals, composers, and artists in camps such as Theresienstadt hoped to preserve a degree of humanity in the face of almost certain death and unspeakable horror. So too did they realize that Hitler was not just trying to eliminate European Jewry but also the culture. This program celebrates the art produced in the camps and explores this unique lens into the Holocaust.
