Anonymous writes "WPCNR NEWSREEL. October 24, 2002:As a first step in developing a Jewish Healing Center in the county, Westchester Jewish Community Services (WJCS) will be presenting a Jewish Healing Center Workshop Series this Fall.

“Our vision is to partner with Jewish institutions to create programs and services that promote the spiritual, intellectual, physical and mental health of Westchester’s Jewish community by infusing all the offerings with the intrinsic power of Judaism’s teachings and tradition,” explains Ann Yerman, MPA, Director of Jewish Program Development. “This series is a first step toward a program that will complement the secular options available for individuals who seek a link to Jewish tradition, Jewish roots and Jewish spirituality.”
