Shomer Collective Educator Fellowship
Curated Series
The resources in this collection were created as part of the Shomer Collective Educator Fellowship, a 9-month, online, cohort-based learning experience for Jewish educators from a variety of settings and backgrounds. The fellowship is a learning community and an innovation lab; fellows learn to integrate Jewish wisdom about life and death into their work and develop resources to bring conversations about end-of-life issues into Jewish educational spaces. The Shomer Collective Educator Fellowship was made possible through the generous support of the Covenant Foundation.
Shomer Collective works to improve end of life experiences by helping people to talk more openly about death, dying, and mourning, through the lens of Jewish wisdom and Jewish practices. We provide resources, educational programming, and opportunities to connect for educators, clergy, end-of-life professionals, individuals, families, and organizations who are interested in exploring the rich intersection between Jewish life and death.
