Our Stories, Our Bodies, Our Torah: Coming Together as a Community After Dobbs

This gathering welcomes women 12+ and learners of all backgrounds.

We want to lift up some beautiful and powerful voices of pastoral leadership so that we can all find the compassion we need. We want to make sure each of us feels seen and understood in this moment of upheaval. And we want to broaden our appreciation of the different facets of this moment and how others are experiencing it.

Host

SVIVAH

SVIVAH’s mission is to empower, strengthen, and nourish Jewish women* through community. SVIVAH is a multigenerational, diverse, powerful collective of Jewish women* dedicated to inspiring, motivating, and celebrating life in sisterhood. In Hebrew, svivah means “to surround her'' and that is precisely our goal. We connect women to each other, to cross-generational wisdom, to Jewish learning, and to the resources we need, in an inclusive, women*-only space. We do this by curating Jewish faith experiences with women at the center, by producing wide-ranging programming, and by amplifying and partnering with organizations in line with our values. (*SVIVAH defines “Jewish woman” as anyone wishing to be included in a circle of Jewish women.)
