SUMMARY:Reflections on the Refugee Experience: Past\, Present and Future
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a special opportunity to hear the voices of refugees in our community\, and learn what you can do to support them. \nAbout this event \nMore people than ever before are displaced from their homes due to crises\, and displacement lasts longer than ever. Welcoming the stranger has long been a core legacy of our country\, and a central Jewish value–one repeated more times than any other commandment in the Torah. \nRefugee Shabbat\, a project by HIAS and sponsored by the Westchester Jewish Coalition for Immigration (WJCI)\, brings congregations\, organizations and individuals in the United States and around the world together during the month of March to dedicate an experience to refugees and asylum seekers. This year\, the Shames JCC on the Hudson\, the JCC of Mid-Westchester and WJCI invite you to hear the stories of three refugees and learn about some of the actions we can take right here in our Westchester community to support recently arrived refugees. \nPlease bring a packet of diapers to donate to a local newly arrived refugee family\, an effort coordinated by WJCI. \nChildcare is available free of charge for a limited number of participants! \nMust show proof of vaccination; masks are optional.
