It says in the post “The funds will be used to expand JCW’s budget in line with the growing demands for its services and to set up JCW offices in Israel, the UK, and Australia.”

There are other organizations who handle battery full time. There are no other Jewish Organizations that even handle CSA part time.

Mr Nash Gd bless you
It would be so wonderful if alongside this organisation there could be a bully project that victims could turn to
The institutions hide bullies

Yasher Koach! Much needed work.

I wish they would also help other types of abuse, like people who have been emotionally abused by serial abusers, it is just as bad as CSA

Talmud, Sanhedrin 37a states:

“For this reason was man created alone, to teach thee that whosoever destroys a single soul… Scripture imputes [guilt] to him as though he had destroyed a complete world; and whosoever preserves a single soul…, scripture ascribes [merit] to him as though he had preserved a complete world.”

May both Ben Nash and JCW be blessed and continue to protect our children!

As a mandated reporter, I have heard my fair share of stories of abuse – the last one being on Tuesday. Children, even those who seem mature, don’t get over the trauma very easily, despite society’s and sometimes, families’, wish to brush it under the rug. Mr. Nash is doing a wonderful thing, because I’m sure his donation will be used to provide expert therapies for victims, which cost far more than most parents can afford.

nice
