February is Jewish Disability Awareness, Acceptance & Inclusion Month (JDAIM) which reminds us that all members of our community, without regard to disability, must have access and opportunities to contribute to Jewish life – to work live, love, play, learn and worship how and where they choose.
Greater MetroWest envisions a community made whole by the meaningful inclusion of all its members. We are grateful to our community members, families, and partner agencies who help us build a community of belonging.
