Shalom Village Kick Off

Shalom Village 1

Join us for the first gathering of Shalom Village, a relationship-based postpartum circle for parents and caregivers with babies from birth through 24 months. Shalom Village offers a welcoming space to build friendships, receive practical parenting support and explore Jewish life in an authentic, meaningful way. We welcome families of all backgrounds, identities and experiences.

During our kickoff session, you’ll meet other local parents, enjoy a catered kosher dinner and begin building the relationships that make a village feel like home. Babies are welcome and encouraged to attend.
