We Support Victims of Sexual Abuse

Rabbanim, psychiatrists, psychologists, mental health professionals, heads of mental health organizations, community leaders, and more are joining together to issue the following statement. 

While the world has certainly changed for the better over the last few years, we are still very far away from where we need to be when it comes to supporting victims of sexual abuse and their families.

We stand with the victims and their families and encourage the rest of the world to do so as well. 

Our message to the victims/survivors:

We are here for you.
You are not alone.
We urge you to seek professional help.
You can heal and live a healthy life.

It is the responsibility of our community to eradicate evil from our midst. We as a community are responsible for defending and protecting victims. Victims are never responsible for protecting abusers. 

אנו תומכים בנפגעי תקיפה מינית

רבנים, פסיכיאטרים, פסיכולוגים, אנשי מקצוע בתחום בריאות הנפש, ראשי ארגוני בריאות הנפש וראשי קהילה מתאגדים יחדיו, בפרסום הצהרה זו.

במהלך השנים האחרונות זכינו לראות התקדמות חסרת תקדים במגוון רב של תחומים. אך לצערנו, אנו עדיין רחוקים מאוד מהנדרש בכל הנוגע לתמיכה בנפגעי תקיפה מינית ומשפחותיהם.

אנו החתומים מטה, עומדים לצד הנפגעים ומשפחותיהם ומזמינים ומעודדים את שאר העולם להצטרף אלינו.

המסר שלנו לנפגעים:

אנחנו כאן לצידכם.

אתם לא לבד.

אנחנו תומכים בכם ומעודדים אתכם לפנות לעזרה מקצועית.

אתם מסוגלים להירפא ולחזור לחיות חיים בריאים ושלמים.

אחריותנו כקהילה היא לקיים את הכתוב “ובערת הרע מקרבך”. אחריותנו כקהילה היא להגן על נפגעים ולתמוך בם. נפגעים אינם אחראים להגן על פוגעם.
