SHALOM BAYIT MISSION STATEMENT

Guided by the conviction that all people were created B’tzelem Elokim, Shalom Bayit strives, through educational outreach and safety awareness, to create a space of peace and harmony in every Jewish home where families can honor and empower themselves and each other to reach their highest potential.

Additionally, our goal is to send a message to all, that there is a safe place within the community, where Jewish victims of domestic abuse can find validation, support and assistance in their efforts to transition to safety and independence for themselves and their children.
