Strauss weaves historical anecdotes and science with conversations with parents and caregivers to the young, old, disabled, ill, and more, revealing a rich array of insights about how care shapes us on the inside and the outside, for the better. “When You Care” has been featured in a number of national publications including “The Atlantic,” “Glamour,” “Slate” and “The Nation” who said “Strauss…writes movingly about the value of intimate care—not only its economic value to society but also its psychological, philosophical, and even spiritual value for those who perform it.”\nAs part of the book talk, Elissa will be selling signed copies of her book and all proceeds  — $12 per book — go to Chochmat Halev.  Pre-order a copy here!!!

Her work appears in publications like the Atlantic, the New York Times, Glamour, ELLE, and elsewhere, and she was a former contributing writer at CNN.com and Slate. Her book, “When You Care: The Unexpected Magic of Caring for Others,” is out now from Gallery Books. \n \nIn addition to her writing work, Elissa is always at work creating possibilities for a more creative, lush Jewish future through her curation and production work. She is the artistic director of the local hub of LABA: A Laboratory for Jewish Culture, the associate director of the global network of LABA hubs, and the guest curator of the 2024 California Jewish Open at the Contemporary Jewish Museum.
