JFS Spotlight Event

Mental health services and suicide prevention continue to be a growing need in our community. Fortunately, Jewish Family Service is a leader in this area, providing critical counseling services and suicide prevention trainings, and will be shining a light on this important topic at our Spotlight Event.

We couldn’t possibly shine a light on mental health and suicide prevention without recognizing the work of

Rabbi Daniel Syme

who is being honored as part of this year’s event for his contributions in this area.

Join us as we welcome stand-up comic Gary Gulman, a nationally renowned talent, star of two HBO comedy specials, and author of Misfit: Growing up Awkward in the 80s. Through his authentic storytelling and brilliant humor, Gary provides a little levity around the serious issue of mental health.

This event is being sponsored by the Reva Stocker Lecture Series
