Helping Our Children Process Pain, Grief, and Emunah
Dear Friends,
When tragedy strikes, we often struggle with how to guide our children through their emotions. How much should we share? What language should we use? How do we balance Emunah with the need to acknowledge and process difficult feelings?
This week, Rabbi Yakov Horowitz and Dr. Aviva Goldstein sat down for a critical conversation on how to help children process grief and pain through a Torah lens. Their insights were so valuable that we compiled them into a practical Darcheinu resource for parents and mechanchim.
📌 This resource provides:
✅ Age-appropriate guidance for talking to children
✅ Strategies for using clear and honest language
✅ Support for helping children feel safe and empowered
✅ A Torah approach to grief, Emunah, and difficult questions

Difficult moments call for clarity, comfort, and Emunah. But they also require support. If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out. You are not alone, and help is always available.
Let’s ensure our children feel safe, heard, and supported—while remembering that we, too, must care for ourselves in the process.
Warmly,

When Our Leaders Get It Wrong…
Understanding the unimaginable harm to victims of sexual abuse when writing letters of support about a sex offender.
It’s sad that I needed to write this really important piece. Amudim Community Resources, Inc has been around for 10 years, but this proves that we still have much work ahead of us.
