Mission

To provide a compassionate peer‑support community for Jewish women navigating their own mental health challenges or those of loved ones, while actively working to reduce stigma and promote mental health awareness within the broader Jewish community.

 

Vision
 

A community in which Jewish women and their loved ones no longer feel isolated in their mental health struggles, because they have found connection, shared experience, and acceptance — and where stigma has given way to compassion and awareness.
