Helping

I've been pointing to this blog a lot recently, because I think it's important... and she just wrote a detailed post explaining (more about) herself and her blog. Read her post. Excerpt: [emphasis added]

8. What can we do to help?

• Visit my blog. :)
• Read.
• Leave comments, preferably not anything judgmental or mean.
• Share with others.
• Practice sensitivity.
• Encourage rabbis to be aware of congregants with "invisible pain."
• Be willing to talk about emotional disorders within the Jewish community.
• Be willing to reach out to people in your own community who might need it.
• Brainstorm ways for your own community to keep people from falling through the cracks.

On an unrelated note, I really liked this post by Mrs. Balabusta.
