JVS Program- Over 40 and Hired

On August 17th, Steven Steinfeld, JCFS's 2009 "Man of the Year" will speak on "Over Forty and Hired." He spoke  a few months ago there was positive feedback from those who attended. With the difficulty those over 40 have finding meaningful work these days, it is well worth the effort to travel to Lombard to hear him speak. See flyer

here .  

 

This event is being hosted by Congregation Etz Chaim, 1710 S. Highland Avenue, Lombard, IL from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM
