SUMMARY:AJFF Presents: Elie Wiesel-Soul on Fire
DESCRIPTION:“Sometimes I’m afraid the tale might be forgotten. Sometimes I’m afraid it is forgotten already.” Told primarily through his own eloquent words\, the film seeks to understand the man behind the searing and widely read memoir Night. Penetrating at the heart of the known and unknown\, the film dives into the author’s legacy as one of the most influential survivors of the trauma of the Holocaust.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWHY WE LIKE THIS FILM: An exceptional biography of one of the best known survivors of the Shoah. A special event for International Holocaust Remembrance Day.\n\n\n\nBONUS PROGRAMMING: Post film discussion and Q&A with Marc Winkelman\, close personal friend of Elie Wiesel.

SUMMARY:JDAIM Community Conversation
DESCRIPTION:February is Jewish Disability Awareness and Inclusion Month (JDAIM). Founded in 2009\, JDAIM is a global initiative that raises awareness\, fosters acceptance\, and promotes the full inclusion of people with disabilities in Jewish life. \nRecently\, Matan published a study\,  Closing the Inclusion Gap: A Report on Disability and Belonging in Jewish Life\, which revealed widespread challenges across the Jewish community in creating accessible and inclusive spaces for people with disabilities. Despite good intentions and a desire to foster belonging\, Jewish spaces continue to struggle to provide appropriate access and accommodation — but we can change this! \nIn honor of JDAIM\, Shalom Austin Jewish Family Service has invited a professional in disability inclusion –working outside of the Jewish communal space — to facilitate an unbiased community conversation around where we are today\, where we could improve going forward\, and actionable next (or first) steps our organizations can take. Through guided discussion and conversational prompts\, we will operate as a Jewish communal “think tank” to share ideas\, workshop solutions to shared challenges\, and walk away with enhanced clarity on what we can do in 2026 to improve inclusion and accessibility in Jewish spaces.

SUMMARY:JFS Grief Circle
DESCRIPTION:Grief is something that we are always experiencing\, whether we are aware of it or not. That grief might follow a death of someone close to us\, news of devastating world events or natural disasters\, or worry about family not supporting your identity or beliefs\, as well as the loss of a job\, relationship\, or other big life changes. We invite you to join JFS clinicians for a Grief Circle where you can connect with others experiencing grief\, learn about the impacts on our bodies and minds\, and gain tools for coping with the inevitable grief that being a human brings. \n\nRegister Here
