Intergenerational Family Seder Guide
A guide to find hope and build family resilience through family stories at the seder.
About this Guide
Built to support parents, grandparents, community leaders and beyond in a time of great pain and tension for our families and the Jewish people, this intergenerational family seder guide makes the case for why and how to weave personal family narratives into the Passover seder as an exercise in finding the hope and building the resilience we all need to bring about next year in Jerusalem.
Created in collaboration with Dr. Robyn Fivush and Dr. Marshall Duke, Emory University psychologists with decades of experience researching the role of narrative in building a childʼs sense of self and resilience.
