“[Attending the Convening] helped me realize how much I'm involved with others' "end of life" already. While we don't focus specifically on end-of-life, my students are near the end of life, and many are dealing with death of a loved one.”
- W.K.
“[This] education and supportive community continue to allow me to grow both in my communal offerings and personally.” -B.K.
“The meaningful small-group discussions and dynamic keynotes invited me to think, wonder, and wrestle with complex ideas, while also offering practical frameworks and topics I can bring back to my students.” - Anonymous
“If you want to use your time wisely, become invigorated intellectually about your profession, and meet kindred spirits with whom you can collaborate – attend a Shomer Collective Convening.” - P.R.
“I rarely see professional development that tackles death and dying from a Jewish perspective. Shomer Collective’s Convening not only filled that gap, but it elevated the conversation.” - J.S.
“Shomer Collective is more necessary now than ever. It shows us the powerful jewish toolbox we have to uncover in our backyards to become stronger together.” - L.S.
“[Shomer Collective’s] wisdom around end-of-life, the heart they bring to the conversation, and the offer of common sense strategies are truly a blessing.” - Rabbi J.
