Operation Survival
Founded in 1988 to combat alcoholism & substance abuse in the racially diverse neighborhood of Crown
Operation Survival is a project of the National Committee for the Furtherance of Jewish Education. The program is funded in part by the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. OASAS provides program oversight and training for Operation Survival staff.
"Our family has witnessed protests in New York City where the crowd chanted, 'Globalize the intifada.' My kids are scared. How can I explain what is happening without causing too much fear, especially since we parents are also scared?"
Our first episode is out: "Parenting in a Post-October 7th World." The series addresses questions regarding trauma following the massacre of October 7th and the surge of global anti-Semitism.
We present questions from parents in New York and asked mental health professionals from Mayanei Hayeshua's Mental Health Center to respond.
We will be sharing weekly on Facebook and providing a youtube version and text newsletter version on http://COLLIVe.com and http://CrownHeights.info
