This group provides hope, strength and support for Jewish alcoholics and addicts, as well as their families and friends. All are welcome-affiliated (from reform to orthodox) or unaffiliated-with Judaism; connected or alienated. Spouses and children of addicts, parents dealing with the pain of their loved one’s addiction, and addicts who are struggling or celebrating sobriety from across the spectrum of Jewish life come together to create a strong spirit of unity.

Jewish Family & Children’s Service is pleased to announce its December Memory Café will feature the talented Keith Johnson, a well-known drumming artist, who will lead participants on a fun, interactive session exploring The Rhythm of Life.
The Café is a meeting place for those with changes in their thinking or memory, mild cognitive impairment or dementia due to Alzheimer’s disease or a related disorder, along with their care partners. Offered on the first Thursday of the month, each Café has a new theme and includes meaningful, fun activities to engage the participants and stimulate their minds and bodies. Socialization is a key component to the cafés, as they are meant to be a place to relax, meet others and have fun.
There is no charge to attend, but registration is required. To register or for further information, please e-mail Kathy.rood@jfcsaz.org or call Kathy at 602-452-4627.
