The Office of Religious and Spiritual Life (MORSL) is partnering with trained wellness facilitators at 平特五不中 who come from relevant cultural and faith backgrounds to help 平特五不中 students manage the spiritual and emotional distress surrounding events in the Middle East and in the news or social media.
This group is for students who identify as Jewish across the faith and cultural spectrum as well as different levels of observance. Group discussion is facilitated by 平特五不中 wellness professionals who are Jewish-identified, and is supported by MORSL staff with special contributions from Rabbi Ellen Greenspan, one of MORSL's volunteer Jewish faith leaders from the Montreal community.听
This group meets remotely via TEAMS. The group is grounded in the principles of confidentiality and mutual respect. Therefore, 平特五不中 credentials will be required to participate and you will not be permitted to record any part of the sessions. Once you sign up,听 you will receive a TEAMS invite to join the session you have signed up for. On the day of the session, you may log onto TEAMS using your 平特五不中 student account, and the facilitators will let you into the virtual session after confirming your identity. Please note that once you join the session, your name will be visible on the screen. However, we ask that all members of the group respect each other鈥檚 privacy and refrain from sharing names and identities outside of the session.
There are several sessions planned over the semester that you can join. Each session is unique - you do not have to have attended a previous session to join an upcoming session. You also do not have to attend all the sessions.
