From slavery to freedom

From slavery to freedom 

One of our main goals as a center is helping other women gain their independence and autonomy in a world where too many of them are subject to  domestic abuse and are captive in unwanted marriages. One of our ways of approaching this issue is by taking calls of women in need and helping them by sharing legal advice. Our most recent callers include a lady whose husband refused to divorce her, and now fears being homeless and penniless; a woman who suffered verbal abuse throughout 35 years of marriage, and even after the divorce was injured by her former spouse; another one that endured 20 years of physical violence and financial abuse. We’re now approaching Passover, called the Festival of Freedom, and therefore want to celebrate these and many other women who regained their liberty.
