Have you ever thought about helping people in the Boston Jewish community during one of the most important and sensitive times in their lives?

After the death of a loved one, many people want the comfort of Jewish rituals like shiva to honor their loved one — but they aren’t sure how, or perhaps they don’t have the support network they need to make it happen.

You can help. Shiva Circle will train you to be a trusted resource when a death happens.

Join us for a virtual info session in advance of our in-person training in Boston this December to learn more about becoming a volunteer Shiva Guide. During this session, you will:

  • Learn how Shiva Circle is designed so that no one has to grieve alone
  • Discover how Shiva Guides help mourners have a meaningful experience during shiva
  • Have an opportunity to ask questions

Participants will leave the session with clarity about the role of the Shiva Guide and the tools to register for an upcoming in-person training in Boston.
