The following are photographs were taken in New York City on November 18, 2008 at a press event that was sponsored by The Awareness Center (international Jewish Coalition Against Sexual Abuse/Assault) and SNAP (Survivors Network of those Abused by Priest).
Rabbi Nachum Rosenberg has been an outspoken rape vicitm advocate in New York city's ultra-Orthodox Jewish community. He has been targeted with two death threats and an attempted murder because he advocates that those abused should report the crimes to law enforcement. The Awareness Center and SNAP joinned forces in hopes of bringing attention to the plight of both Rabbi Rosenberg and children living in Williamsburg and Borough Park (Brooklyn, NY) who have been sexually abused. The goal of both The Awareness Center and SNAP is to offer hope and healing.
The Awareness Center closed. We operated from April 30, 1999 - April 30, 2014. This site is being provided for educational & historical purposes. We were the international Jewish Coalition Against Sexual Abuse/Assault (JCASA); and were dedicated to ending sexual violence in Jewish communities globally. We did our best to operate as the make a wish foundation for Jewish survivors of sex crimes. In the past we offered a clearinghouse of information, resources, support and advocacy.
