Heading:  If you’re thinking of attending the 2008 Symposium

 Dear AASWG Member,

 Attending the 2008 AASWG Symposium in Germany will be an emotionally powerful experience for me, as a daughter of Jewish survivors of the Holocaust.  I am preparing for this journey in many ways – mostly through reading, personal reflection, and dialogue with Jewish and German friends and colleagues. 

Although I feel increasingly ready to go to Germany with an open heart, I would very much like to connect with others in AASWG who want to prepare for what they anticipate to be an emotionally challenging experience.  Perhaps if we begin an exchange in advance, we can help one another to use this rare opportunity to the maximum.

Please contact me if you want to be part of such an exchange.  I can be reached by e-mail at abergart@aurora.edu or abergart@speakeasy.net.  My phone number is 847-967-2255.

 

Regards,

Ann Bergart
