From brushing up on Hamantaschen recipes to practicing Megillah reading, individuals in our residences are making the most of the blizzard — staying warm, creative, and connected indoors. 🏠✨

A heartfelt thank you to our incredible DSPs, Dayhab staff, and job coaches who showed up in the snow to ensure continuity of care and support. Your dedication makes moments like these possible. 💙

Even on the coldest days, our community shines bright.

During Jewish Disability Awareness, Acceptance & Inclusion Month, we reflect on what it truly means to be a kehillah, a community.

A strong Jewish community is defined by how we show up for one another. By strengthening spaces where individuals with disabilities and their families are supported, respected, and fully valued.

This month is a reminder to continue building environments rooted in dignity, opportunity, and shared responsibility.

At Ohel, that commitment guides our work every day.
