About this event

As part of the education of all and the celebration of those differently abled, during Jewish Disability Awareness, Acceptance and Inclusion Month, we want to welcome everyone to learn from Rabbi Lauren Tuchman. The first blind woman to enter the rabbinate, Rabbi Tuchman is clearly a trailblazer — creating opportunities for herself and leading the way for so many others. Through this informative, free webinar, she’ll offer us the opportunity to broaden our knowledge and expand our inclusivity and awareness in the digital space, leading the way to a much greater sense of inclusion for our community and beyond. When we bring our neighbors in, making sure they’re taken care of, we’re one step closer to repairing the world.
