Kol Hadash Humanistic Congregation holds weekly Sunday School classes for students in 1st through 10th Grade Confirmation. Each class has a well-defined curriculum, covering topics in Jewish history, literature and culture. We encourage children to value their Jewish identity and to think for themselves.

Everyone is welcome at our events so you can meet us for yourself — no charge and with no expectation of a commitment.

Temple Beth Israel in Skokie Presents Lecture Series

Temple Beth Israel (3601 W. Dempster, St., Skokie) Presents “Nationalism and Judaism: A Burden or an Opportunity?” – a series taught by TBI’s own Rabbi Michael Weinberg, Monday evenings, Feb. 24, March 2, 16, 23, 30, at 6:00 pm. An optional dinner is at 6:00 pm for a cost of $10 per person, per session. Each lecture starts at 7:00 pm and there’s no charge to attend just the sessions. Reservations for the dinners are due five days prior to the lecture. For more information call the temple office at 847-675-0951 or visit http://www.tbiskokie.org.

No class on March 9.

In this five-session series, we will explore the stories that we Jews tell, from biblical times to the present, about our dual commitments to Jewish particularism and Jewish universalism. Together we will mine the Jewish tradition for orientations and values that we want to be the dominant, guiding lens through which we approach the idea of nationalism – all the while, deeply cognizant of the multivocal tradition and the possibilities for alternative orientations.

Grieving a Loss to Suicide

A free monthly drop-in group for adults in the Jewish community and beyond who are navigating the world after the loss of a loved one to suicide.

Co-led by experienced clinicians Tracey Lipsig Kite, LCSW and Wendy Dolin, LCSW, a survivor of suicide loss.

Wendy Dolin, LCSW, is a certified family therapist with a private practice in the Chicago area and an internationally recognized health and safety advocate. Wendy is the founder of the Medication-Induced Suicide Prevention and Education Foundation in Memory of Stewart Dolin (MISSD). She started MISSD following the 2010 death of her husband, Stewart, who died from preion-drug-induced suicide (akathisia). In 2018, the International Society of Ethical Psychiatry and Psychology recognized Wendy Dolin with its “Humanitarian of the Year” award.

Tracey Lipsig Kite, LCSW, has been a social worker at JCFS Chicago for twenty-five years. Tracey has served the community on a variety of roles, including therapist, supervisor, Healthcare Guide, and founder and Director of Jewish Healing Network of Chicago. Ms. Kite’s passion is the development and support of healthy people, families, and communities.
