Intergenerational Transmission of Trauma: The Holocaust and Its Psychological Impact on Subsequent Generations
Sunday, April 3, 2022, 7-8:30 pm With Carol Laibson, LICSW Zoom Link
How does trauma from a parent get transmitted to a child? How does trauma from one generation get passed down to the next generation? What impact does this trauma have on subsequent generations? Carol Laibson, LICSW, is the clinical manager of Schechter Holocaust Services, a program of Jewish Family & Children’s Service of Greater Boston. The child of a Holocaust survivor and an expert in the field of gerontology, her work focuses on mental health, dementia, and trauma among older adults. She will help us understand the impact of the Holocaust on current generations of Jewish people, and how we can cope with the often-hidden impact.

Minyan List for the Week
Congregants commemorating a yahrzeit may wish to honor that event by leading some portion of the evening’s service. It might be as small as leading a prayer or could be leading all of Mincha or Ma’ariv. If you are interested in taking this honor feel free to call Joe Doniger at 781-910-7601 or email us at MinyanRangers@bnaitikvahma.org at least two days in advance, and we’ll help make arrangements with that night’s minyan leader. Due to the pandemic, as many people are observing a virtual Shiva week, if you inform the leader, a third Mourners' Kaddish will be included as is done in a shiva house.
