Understanding causes of and responses to intimate partner violence in a Jewish orthodox community: Survivors' and leaders' perspectives

Article Abstract:

The social attitudes and religious values in an Ultra-Orthodox Jewish community are examined that have affected the incidence of intimate partner violence (IPV) and have prevented women survivors from seeking help. The results have indicated that it is important to develop cultural and value-based treatment models that would be sensitive and use relevant cultural and religious values to improve the well being of children and families in these communities.
