Judaism is better when women are heard - and seen.

What We Do

 

Chochmat Nashim creates a healthier Jewish community and Israeli society by challenging — and changing — the damaging extremist trends that plague the Orthodox world. From erasing women to the plight of agunot, we highlight issues and provide tools and resources to create change.

What are the issues?

Extremism

The Jewish community is sliding towards extremism -- and it's unhealthy for all of us. We can work together to maintain a moderate, healthy frum society.

Agunot

Much of the pain involved in Jewish divorce isn't caused by Halacha, but on norms we can change. Chochmat Nashim breaks down the issues and offers ways the community can protect itself.
