Highland Park Community House

The High&nbsp;Holidays are central to our Jewish living, not because they mark an historic event, but because they embody an essential Jewish process: intense personal and communal introspection held in play with boundless hope that our behavior will make a difference. In these difficult and painful times with so much division in our community and our country, we need to share in our Jewish journeys. That's why we invite you to participate this year, either in person or on Zoom.
