It's Happening In Miami

Tuesday, May 27 | 7-8 PM VIA Zoom

Temple Beth Am's Addiction Support Group for the Jewish Community

Addiction is a disease, and it’s in the Jewish community. We are here to support recovery from addiction. We are working to eliminate the shame often felt by those struggling with addiction and their families. Through our education and addiction awareness programs, we strive to end the stigma, so all Jews can feel that they belong.

Recovery is strengthened through our support group and the exploration of Jewish traditions, wisdom, and texts. Our Addiction Support Group for the Jewish Community welcomes everyone who struggles with addiction and their loved ones.

To participate on Zoom, email Mindy Robbin at [email protected]
