MEETING THE NEED
Jewish tradition teaches that Jewish practice should not endanger life, health, and safety.
However, in a survey of those unable to safely observe Jewish rituals, 87% of respondents said they felt that they had to choose between safe ritual observance and Jewish belonging.
In a separate survey of those unable to safely fast:
-
85% of respondents reported feeling shame on Jewish ritual fast days
-
86% have felt alone
-
70% have tried to fast, knowing it was unsafe for them
Our model
