At this challenging moment, we are all affected. Jewish, Jew/ish, or ally of another faith background, each of us has work to do to support our diverse community. The tips below are a jumping off point for engaging with teens about last week’s attack. We recognize that these quickly-sourced tips still come days after the attack, and that you’ve likely already had difficult conversations with your loved ones. Healing is a process, and there will likely be more conversations ahead as you and your family continue to absorb what has happened. We encourage you to tend to yourselves alongside the young people in your life.
May we feel held and may we find solace together.
– Rabbi Emily Cohen, Lab/Shul Jewish Emergent Network Fellow
