The writing workshops meet monthly at JFCS and focus on the "Second Gen" experience. The workshop series is on-going and offered both during the day and in the evening. Guided writing prompts harness and explore:
    •    Memories of growing up in a survivor household
    •    Responsibilities associated with their parents' legacies
    •    Considerations of the Second Gen identity
    •    Preparations for speaking to schools, organizations and the public
Although labeled a "writing workshop," participants are encouraged but never required to write.
Lunch and Light Dinner provided
Two workshops are offered monthly. Writers can come to one or both!
10:30 am: Morning workshop wraps up with lunch
