WEST HARTFORD – Love & Religion is a new 4-session discussion group for interfaith couples where one partner is Jewish.
This fall, four local couples met at the Mandell JCC in West Hartford to discuss how they choose to lead religion in their household and how they would raise their children. The group provided a safe environment to have these sometimes challenging discussions and also a place for couples to learn from each other’s experiences. The program, led by social worker Laura Kenyon,  is funded by the Jewish Community Foundation of Greater Hartford and presented by CHAI: The Center for Jewish Life.
