Our "how to" brochure, bookmark and book for congregations (Becoming A Kehilat Chesed) are great resources for developing a Caring Community within your congregation. In the development of these programs over the last two decades, we have found that one of the keys to success has been the need to tailor each program to the specific culture of your congregation. For
direct personal guidance on "next steps" we suggest that you contact
Rabbi Richard Address, Caring Community/Family Concerns specialist, (raddress@urj.org or 212-650-4296).
