Join Federation's Jewish Abilities Alliance, in collaboration with our Tri-County partners, for a virtual ceremony on Wednesday, October 20, 7-8 p.m. to recognize the inspiring personal stories and empowering achievements of individuals within South Florida’s vibrant Jewish community with differing abilities. Hear tales of triumph, learn about the supportive programs available in our area and find out how you can participate in our advocacy work.
