Aging in Community

The Aging In Community committee addresses the needs and interests of our curious, thoughtful, and vibrant members who are 55 years of age or older. We always welcome TBZ members of all ages to participate in, learn from, and enjoy our programs.

From studying the story of Moses at the end of his life — to learning how to organize belongings — to parenting adult children, we are always in pursuit of what our Jewish tradition has to teach us about being hopeful, creating meaning and purpose, and staying engaged and useful as we age.  And, we continually look for ways that our elders can meaningfully engage and enhance the lives of members of younger generations in our TBZ community.

We look forward to having you join us for one or many of our groups or programs.  Stay informed with Happenings for our calendar of offerings.  Please contact office@tbzbrookline.org to learn more or get involved.
