Orthodox Plan Training
To Prevent Child Abuse
Jewish Family Service, in partnership
with Noam Detroit, the social services
division of the Southfield-based Council
of Orthodox Rabbis of Greater Detroit, is
organizing a series of community trainings
to help prevent child abuse, May 17-May
20.
The trainings will use the framework of
Los Angeles-based Magen Yeladim Child
Safety Institute's "Safety Kid" educational
program to give parents, children, school
staff and mental health professionals the
tools needed to prevent child abuse in the
community. Five trainers from Magen
Yeladim will come to Detroit for the pro-
grams.
The trainings are expected to reach
1,000 parents, 500 staff and 58 classrooms
through Yeshivas Darchei Torah, Yeshiva
Beth Yehudah, Akiva Hebrew Day School
and Lubavitch Cheder.
Trainings will include two parent work-
shops, three staff trainings, four admin-
istration roundtables, a rabbinic meeting,
a "Seminary Savvy" training for 11th-and
12th-grade girls and their mothers, teacher
training and a three-day seminar to train
15 local volunteer Safety Kid educators.
Principals from local participating
schools had approached Noam Detroit
about bringing this program to the com-
munity. Noam and JFS have since collabo-
rated closely to make the comprehensive
training series possible. The program is
funded by a grant from the Jewish Fund.

QUICK CLICK ••• Vignettes From The JN Archives

T
his week, we don't have a
Quick Click story, but we do
have some questions.
Where can you find a variety of
interesting reading? From the serious
to the light-hearted? Maybe you are a
fan of the Star Wars movies? (I never
knew one says, "May the fourth be
with you" on May 4.) Or are you inter-
ested in how Detroit's Jewish commu-
nity felt about the founding of Israel?
Or, are you interested in fun, old
advertisements, like the one for Chef
Boyardee spaghetti sauce and Jewish
cooking? Or, maybe you just like cat
photographs, like that of the feline in
the IDF uniform?
All of these stories, as well as hun-
dreds of thousands more, can be found
in the archives of the Detroit Jewish
News. But, there is another way to
interact with the history within the
JN archives — the Facebook page of
the Detroit Jewish News Foundation!

Purr-im Kitty
DEPARTMENTS
I'm a proud Jewish cat — proud of my heritage and homeland and
proud to wear the uniform of the Israel Defense Forces, if only as a
Purina costume. This is one of 28 costumes my owner, Wendy Ruth
Gottlieb, made and dressed me up in to show off in her new picture
book Purr-im Cat (Pitspopany Press, 2007).
All my many costumes are extremely authentic in detail, right down
to my Queen Esther tiara or my white Mogen David Adom E.M.S.
medical jacket.
But despite the authenticity of my army uniform — including the
khaki kippah and Lion of Judah epaulets — there's one detail I could
live without. That darn dog tag!
