National Council of Jewish Women – St. Louis Section begins a new session Nov. 7 of the Wife-Widow-Woman support group for recently widowed women. The group aims to bridge the gap between grief and growth, reducing the sense of isolation experienced from loss of a spouse.  Led by social worker Sylvia Nissenboim, the program helps participants on their personal journey to becoming more independent single women in a coupled world.  

All recently widowed women are welcome to participate and may be of any age, race or religious background. The program is free (underwritten by Nardie and Sally Stein in memory of Jean Stein Bloch).  

The next session begins at 11 a.m. on Nov. 7 at the NCJW-St. Louis Section offices, 295 N. Lindbergh Boulevard in Creve Coeur.  Participants must pre-register in order to join the group, which meets twice a month through April.  For more information, contact Nancy Weigley at [email protected] or call the NCJW office at 314-993-5181.
