"Aryeh is a brilliant woman. I have watched her develop the most exciting community program that I have seen in my twenty-five years of community work. The popular theater that she has created and that the members of this community have presented hundreds of times over these past years has become the public face of our organization to the neighborhood and to the region --- a face that shows the strength, vibrancy and beauty of this community of immigrants. It is also the program that dives deepest into the souls of the people who live here, safely supporting them to face their pain, speak their truths, heal themselves and enable others to do the same in a spirit of mutual connection and support. This is powerful work." - Rebecca Bauen
