For most of our community members\, if we want a Yiddish-speaking environment\, we have to proactively create one—so that’s what we’re doing! Here are some guidelines for being part of a language-immersion activity. \nAsking how to say something? Perfectly fine; we do this all the time. Tossing in a short English word or phrase—especially an idiom or quote—while keeping the conversation in Yiddish? Common among American Yiddish speakers and also perfectly fine. However\, we ask participants to avoid telling anecdotes or otherwise speaking in English for an extended period of time. Conversing in English disrupts the Yiddish-language environment\, and it takes away learning opportunities for students. Yiddish speakers and students at all levels are welcome at farbreng. It’s normal to feel nervous about your Yiddish\, but we applaud and encourage all students and speakers to use Yiddish. If you have any questions about the program\, please write to us at farbreng-boston@yugntruf.org \nRegister here.

From events unfolding abroad—like the wars in Gaza and Ukraine—to the rise of authoritarianism in the U.S.\, layered on top of personal grief\, burnout\, and loss\, it can feel like the weight never really lets up. This is the backdrop of our lives as we move into adulthood: building relationships\, careers\, and identities at a time when the future often feels bleak\, unstable\, and deeply uncertain. \nAnd yet\, even in this moment\, there are real possibilities for hope—hope rooted in connection\, collective care\, radical compassion\, and meaningful action. \nWhat are you grieving right now? How do Jewish values and ways of thinking help you make sense of that grief? How does being Jewish connect you to community\, sustain hope\, and shape how you show up in the world—especially when the path forward feels unclear? \nJoin us for a reflective\, grounded conversation on grief\, hope\, and healing in community\, inspired by “Let’s Build a Room for Hope” by Rabbi Miriam Grossman. Together\, we’ll create space to name what we’re holding\, connect with others navigating similar questions\, and explore how grief can be shared\, held\, and transformed into care\, solidarity\, and action. \nAbout Sammie: Sammie is a member of BWC and a doctoral student in psychology\, with a focus on liberation psychology and healing through radical compassion. She is deeply invested in community care\, inspired by Rabbi Miriam’s work\, and grateful to be holding this space together with BWC. \nRegister at https://bit.ly/ya0419 URL:https://circleboston.org/event/lets-build-a-room-for-hope-grief-healing-ya-community-care-session/ LOCATION:BWC Building CATEGORIES:Young Adult Community END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260421T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260421T203000 DTSTAMP:20260406T052118 CREATED:20260111T192227Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260403T192646Z UID:10003549-1776798000-1776803400@circleboston.org SUMMARY:Intermediate Yiddish: Virtual DESCRIPTION:Build confidence in your Yiddish – reading\, speaking\, and listening\, in a supportive and welcoming classroom of intermediate Yiddish students. We’ll focus on building reading fluency\, comprehension strategies\, dictionary skills\, and making meaning from texts while enjoying selections from the canon of Yiddish literature. In this class\, you will find abundant opportunities to stretch and grow your Yiddish. We’ll read slowly\, translate continuously\, and look up every unfamiliar word as we read (in Yiddish) and discuss (in English and Yiddish) literature together. This semester\, we’ll continue reading the memoirs of 19th-century feminist icon Puah Rakovsky\, whose spellbinding tell-all memoir describes her experiences of arranged marriage\, teen motherhood\, rejecting her religious upbringing\, divorcing her parents’ son-in-law\, starting a career\, and becoming one of the world’s first women’s rights activists. \nLearn more and register here.
