Havdalah with a Maven: Genetic Insights in the Jewish Community: Understanding Risk, Heritage, and Health

15 Nov @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

Learn about Jewish Genetics at Havdallah with a Maven on Saturday, November 15!

Join us for Havdallah and a fascinating presentation about Jewish genetics, given by Brigitte Cronier, MS, LCGC, a board-certified genetic counselor based in Bend. Many genetic conditions are more prevalent in people of Jewish ancestry, but awareness of these risks is often limited. You will learn about genetic conditions that are more common in the Jewish community, and what people at increased risk for these conditions can do about it. There will be time for questions.

This program will start at 6:30pm. The presentation will be followed by a nosh of light snacks and drinks. Watch your weekly newsletter for the specific location. Any questions? Reach out to us at shalom@bethtikvahbend.org
