Abstract

The myth that family violence does not exist in the Jewish community has been effectively refuted with both research and advocacy. However, unsubstantiated beliefs about the nature of Jewish family violence and its prevalence are widely accepted. Additional study is needed to explore the dynamics and epidemiology of family violence in the Jewish community and to provide a better foundation for addressing this problem.
