Organizations
Areivut is built on a holistic, team-based model that recognizes divorce as a multifaceted experience requiring coordinated support. Our training brings together clergy, legal professionals, educators, mental health professionals, organizational leaders, and engaged community members to create a responsive network of care. By aligning language, values, and skills across roles, we strengthen the entire ecosystem surrounding individuals and families. This collaborative approach ensures that no one carries the burden alone and that support is consistent, compassionate, and grounded in shared principles. When working together, this support team can create a safety net that feels steady, caring, and deeply communal.

Jewish organizations—schools, synagogues, JCCs, camps, and community agencies—play a central role in shaping the experiences of individuals and families, yet most lack a clear framework for supporting community members through divorce. Staff and leadership often encounter complex situations involving family dynamics, child wellbeing, financial stress, or shifts in participation, but without training, they may feel unprepared to respond in ways that are compassionate, consistent, and aligned with best practices. This can lead to uneven support, boundary confusion, or unintended harm, especially within the layered context of Jewish communal expectations and diverse denominational practices. Nuanced training equips organizations with shared language, trauma-informed approaches, and practical policies for navigating disclosures, co-parenting conflicts, and community tensions. It also strengthens referral pathways by helping institutions build collaborative networks with mental health, legal, and pastoral professionals. When organizations invest in this knowledge, they create safer, more supportive environments where individuals and families feel held rather than marginalized—and the entire community becomes more resilient and responsive.
