Classes and Support Groups

A support group is a group of people with common experiences or concerns who provide each other with encouragement, comfort, and advice. The Wendy and Avron B. Fogelman Jewish Family Service at the Memphis Jewish Community Center (MJCC) classes and support groups offer professional as well as peer interaction, specific to a variety of topics and life circumstances. Be on the lookout for additional classes and groups in the future!
