In Sisterhood, women of all ages join together for friendship, mitzvot, socializing and learning - and we’d like to meet you at our in-person or Zoom events. Here, you’ll find old and new friends at our many interesting and fun events. Take a break from your busy life for some time just for you.
Sisterhood is committed to tikkun olam (repairing the world) and our past presentations on reproductive rights, mental health, and domestic violence have earned us praise on the national Sisterhood stage.
See you at Sisterhood!
