Jewish Disability, Awareness, Acceptance & Inclusion Month

February is Jewish Disability Awareness, Acceptance & Inclusion Month (JDAIM), but Federation's Miami Jewish Abilities Alliance (MJAA) works year-round to advocate for people with disabilities and their families. MJAA's website provides detailed, evidence-based information across the lifespan so people with disabilities of all kinds — physical, neurological, learning and developmental — can fully enjoy life, with Jewish practices included. The site offers connections to helpful services, resources and a disability specialist. New content is added regularly, including, most recently, information about ADHD. Federation is proud to help raise awareness, remove barriers and celebrate diversity. For further information, contact Nancy Zaretsky, Disability Specialist, at [email protected].
