There is a growing new wave of people in our community that are standing with us to support the victim and prevent future victims. Join us by sharing this video and 'LIKE'ing us on Facebook: / jewishcommunitywatch.org
Jewish Community Watch, a child-sexual-abuse advocacy group, held a landmark seminar directed toward addressing sexual abuse issues within the Jewish community. The following video contains some highlights from the three-hour seminar.
The event featured a variety of experts from a range of fields. Rav Tauber, a world-renowned Rav, Dayan and Rabbi, lectured and provided insight into Jewish legal and halachic perspective. Rav Tauber loudly proclaimed that any rabbi that assists a predator is equivalent to having committed the crime himself. Benny Forer, a veteran criminal prosecutor, discussed legal issues pertaining to CSA and explained the reasons why there is a life-time registration requirement for sex-offenders. Dennis Brown, Executive Director of the Ness Counseling Center, provided insight into the mind of a predator and his motivations. Meyer Seewald, Director of JCW, recounted his story and reasons for creating the organization.
Jewish Community Watch is an organization dedicated toward the eradication of child sexual abuse within the orthodox Jewish community. As a victim advocacy group and community awareness center, JCW provides information to community members relating to accused predators as well as providing training and resources for survivors and their families.

The horrors of priests is pretty mainstream now, I'm glad the abuse by Rabbi's is finally coming to light as well. We must weed out the bad ones and expose them for the evil that they are. Thank you for making this video!
Tammy Thomas - priests, pastors, rabbis, teachers, coaches, Cub Scout leaders, etc. Yes. It's not limited to one group.
It's never gonna come to light lol. You think the Jews that run the Washington Post are going to write about this? Nah they'd only do it with priests
Please start here with names and addresses of these bad ones. Please.....
It's unbelievable. I'm happy you are able to help the community.
GET RID OF THE PEDOPHILES!!!!!!!
If people think it's not easy to TALK about, think about being the poor DEFENSELESS CHILD BEING BRUTALIZED!!!!!
Shalom & Ahavah achi
What your doing is very well received and supported!!
Wow! May HaShem bless all of you whom are involved in this wonderful cause. Behezrat HaShem we will hear only good things amongst our nation in the future and with HaShems help we will succeed in protecting our children.
This is fantastic! I love the fact that religious heads are coming out and speaking out about this.
Whether you agree with religion or not, a person in power standing up for an issue in a positive light is fantastic and you being a douchebag about it doesn't say anything about their beliefs. It says something about yours.
Now only if the non believers would do the same.
Please, please, share this with everyone you know! This is so important!
Yasher Koach Meyer! Amazing, I'm crying. You're doing great!
I was assaulted by someone in my community, and I am not a child! It could happen to anybody at any age G-d forbid! I revealed the criminal's name on fb, and someone I know came to me after and thanked me for saving her kids, b/c her little daughter is in this criminal's daughter's class, and she's been to her house to play... can u imagine if I never said anything?!? It could have happedned to my friend's daughter as well! I know I did the right thing, and I got a LOT of support.
Thank you for having the COURAGE to stand up for the truth. We are surrounded by people who are drowning in an epidemic of apathy and denial, misguided empathy and pity for the offenders/criminals, while forsaking and hurting the actual victims who so desperately need our support. Keep up your work. Spread the word and make your voice heard. Do not shy away from the opposition of ignorant and apathetic masses. The small voice of truth will always prevail.
This is much needed...shame on anyone who stays quiet when bad things are being done especially to children.
Heh, I'm not Jewish, but what gives with all the anti-semitic posts? They are trying to address conflicting pressures in their tradition, and they are doing it openly. Good for them. I wish some other religious groups did both.
Yes, people do this everyday with Muslims and African Americans
cope
@@Qrayon Your faith is evil
@@daveholland6293 Faith in the Creator of the Universe is evil, you say? You sound just like Satan. No, Satan. You are evil.
Rav. Tauber is a Hero!!!!!
Powerful, Important, & Very Compelling Presentation - Thank You.
I am in awe of your organisation.Hashem should bless you with the strength to help all the children who have been afflicted! Thank you for being so open and honest with this very real issue!!
Please Please come to Baltimore and clean up this town
Nice to see all the caring Jewish moms turning up to show their support
I think some of them are victims of this crime.
There is no known therapy that works to reduce or prevent child abuse. It is always about power and control, not about sex. Bless all who are willing to step up and protect children.
Thank you for openess. God bless you with wisdom, love and rightiousness. Do not give up this fight! Children are so important to the most High, children are not for nothing a blessing according to His Word.
Great video! Well appreciated!
Yasher Koach to Rabbi Tauber and all those who participate in creating a community awareness of this devastating problem. It takes strength and courage to stand up and talk about it even more gadlus to do something about it.
May HaShem bless you & may he open doors for your organization to bring awareness to other communities. Also may the movie & entertainment industry realize how much they are contributing to increase this problem. We need to unite to protect all of the children of the world. It is our duty as humans,
AMAZING!!!!! FINALLY PEOPLEARE SPEAKING OUT!!!!
Thank you for your efforts ! MOST IMPORTANT WORK !
Amazing!!! Keep up the great work
Great job continue !we need people like you
Please pass this on!!
Awesome... Supporting the Jewish community watch
it IS good to see a program like JCW taking the lead to protect the children. And a better system does need to be in place so that repeat offenses do not take place or in fact do not occur at all. It is a sad time to see the religious community struggling with such an issue.
The 33 who have disliked the video must be molesters or their enablers and accomplices (I mean them who keep their mouths shut), I can't think any other reason why a decent human being would not applaud these people for what they are doing for the children.
Good job. May you be zoche to have such an organization that has proper community funding. Going to post on my blog tomorrow. It's a shame that the mesira thing is still firmly planted in many frum people's minds, to the point that abusers garner more trust than victims. Weberman is one such example, as well is the latest Kolko to get sentenced
Thank you for saying these words our leaders have failed they made pepole close their mouth wether it'schildren abuse or domestic violence
Courageous!
So heartwarming to finally stand up for victims. Yes, it is watching your sister/brother die if you know of a molester and don't report it. And yes molesters don't get better, they need to be kept away from kids and anyone else they could abuse. Chazak LA, may NY learn some lessons from you! Recent story of Deb Tambor prime example of ignoring sexual abuse and resulted in a 33 year old mom losing hope and dying.
Straight away
What’s the difference between jcw and amudim just curious
It's stop to start a wall of shame for the community members who harass victims who report...
If it take your religion to understand this there’s a larger issue that cannot go unaddressed. This shouldn’t be a question.
It's about time I home JCW can to the job but I know it will take a lot so I'm backing them and hope to get updates.
Off topic but Jewish people seem so sweet and beautiful I hope this problem is fixed I would love to visit Israel and learn more about yall
exposing a child molester and when in the the same question is a scary thought........you should always expose these nasty people.
Right-on Meir!!
Oh my... are the women separated from the men in the audience by a partition? How odd.
Sometimes the Muslim the Muslim do too
Rabbi Tauber hes such a special person!
What great, great men.They care more about protecting Hashem's precious jewels than making a great name for themselves. Their reward will be waiting for them.
Men! Because men are known for empathy or what ?
thanks
The answer to the title is always!
I'm not a Jew, Christian nor Muslim, but I'm against of imprisoning a molester, there should be higher punishment for those bastards.
Put them in a jail or I may call "Hotel" with all facilities, internet, TV, theater &... in prison ? are you kidding me? in prison they have access to internet and chat rooms. you know how many of them hunting innocent kids, & as soon as they are out of jail they go after the hunted?a molester is a cancer cell this is not the way to heal the society,
Do you help Jews that aren't orthodox?
God is Gracious I lost you how did that happen? All the best once again to you and your family! I will not make promises I cannot keep though!
Please, do not just throw them out of your synagogue and community - leaving them free to offend again. Sex offenders don't care what religion their victims are. Ring the police immediately. If not, you are putting ALL children at risk.
Who knew Meyer could speak! Nachas
Hotel? Have you ever been in prison? I don't think you would refer to it as a hotel if you had....
AWW HELL YEA!!! JCW!!!!! Lets get it done.
oy vey imagine this sort of thing happening in this community for the last 1000 years
It's a possibility .
Did you read the Talmud yet .
No not making it up
And the worse part it's that you and me not allowed to talk about it.
For the past 1000 year's .
🤔 How bizarre
Why the white wall between men and women , where were the female speakers ? I find that part of the problem
Wow Great.
I am watching this on Shabbatt - the fact that these men could be so medakdek about certain mitzvot and disobeys others - how do you explain this
I'm amazed you're even using technology on the Sabbath/Shabbat to begin with. Are you even Orthodox? Or what denomination? Conservative perhaps even Reform?
C'mon...No g-d fearing Orthodox follow (perhaps even Conservative) would go against melakhoth. To note, I used the plural term because from where I'm standing eating my bacon (ooo, NOT Kashrut/Kosher; Humanist/Reform) you just broke a whole lotta Halakha.
Even misspelled "shabbatt". (I would've settled for even Sabbath...) un-Holy meshugana BATMAN! ***taps you on the philtrum and spits back into your "reality". ***shakes her finger*** Now, never speak of this again! ;P Go now - hide behind the Roman blinds that block your "Jewish" female-ishness from the ubiquitous XY's ;) And before I burst your rooted bubble: DIASPORA. We're ONE race, human.
Wait...was this a life or death kinda thing to save someone by watching old Rabbi's and one hot young dude explain this in both pockets of Yiddish betwixt with English? If it was, I do believe you iz covered by Elohim! HuRRaH! ;) *floats back up to Enoch. But...I'll prepare a place for you in Gehenna, just in case ;)
And yes, you're right. g-d is rightly PISSED off. And this is of HUMAN RIGHTS and LAWS, and it is against BOTH dogma and conventional legal doctrine. Those who commit this crime against children are often sociopaths and narcissists. Not addicted as the faux-psychologist/psychiatrist/follower of cocaine consuming Freudian-slips said.
They absolutely need human legal action taken against them. And g-d WILL deal with them, when their soul departs this existence too. I can assure you, g-d is VERY ANGRY. Not just about this, but many other transgressions too. Peace be with you. Shalom and Salaam.
And goodness sake, knock it off with the tech on Shabbat! (but g-d doesn't care really ;P) Unless you're on one of those whittled down mobile devices that the Orthodox use in Israel. Then, carry on :)
No - I am far from Orthodox - I am a very strong feminist who grew up frum - and left it for a lot of sociopolitical reasons - that being said, I am very Jewish - and have a strong respect for Halachah and for those who observe it consistently
Judy Meibach Awesome :) Yay for the tribe! :D
Judy Meibach I do too. (much respect) But I think when wrong is wrong, there's no amount of argument ad nauseam that can even contain these evil deeds whenever committed against any child.
This act done to them, is a purely selfish act. Not an addictive act. An act of entitlement, where they believe or justify even that this is permitted because they carry some authority (hence the narcissism and sociopathy).
That lawyer who spoke during this video, should've clued into his own use of logical fallacies. You cannot justify crimes against fellow human beings - it's unethical; amoral and you bet it's against anything of g-d/God+3/Allah. :)
When....? WTF!?
how about IMMEDIATELY, fucking disgraceful, they abuse and murder with impunity and even the so called good ones have to question if its right to report these things, are they mentally disturbed?
Look at that herpe
Does HaShem really hate the gentiles? Did He not have mercy on Rahab, and did He reject Ruth who chose to follow Naomi and declared that her people will be as my people, and your God as my God? Was He not angered with David when David, a Jew, had Uriah the Hittite murdered to cover his adultery? He healed Namaan the Syrian who came to the prophet to be healed of leprosy and prophecied in Ezekiel that He would pour out His spirit on ALL flesh. God's love is for both Jew and Gentile.
Important to spread this message!
They do offer comforts but are you really supposed to throw people in there to rot? I am not saying that 'real criminals' should not pay for their crimes but what about the large percentage of people who are incarcerated that are innocent or there on very minor charges! The prison system is supposed to rehabilitate people, make them better, they made mistakes they deserve a chance to start over, depending on circumstances and the crime committed of course. It's complicated to find a just medium
and they don't have theaters, the only internet access I have heard of is email. Quite a few people became better and famous (ex. Malcolm X) while sitting in prison and using the library there! And several of the education programs in prison can boast a very low return rate of inmates who participated. Education made them better. There are always prevailing circumstances an it is not like christian culture and society has made these 'sex problems' in particular any easier to deal with
If you are talking about molesters!!? yes, I do expect to throw them in jail to rot,
Please review the video clip and why I wrote so harsh particularly for this kind of animal, I don't call them human or people.
beside to preventing imprisoning innocent people is better working on the judicial system (which is another wrong system in N-America and I'm not gonna talk about it)
the whole argument is about real criminal, & u know that I'm not talking about innocent, ONE time mistakin' people.

The Jewish people beginning from Abraham throughout the ages to the present time have followed the Holy Torah, the five books of Moses which was given by G-d to Israel His people through the hand of Moses our teacher. Our fore-fathers followed the Holy Torah even before the official giving of the Holy Torah on Mount Sinai, and we too follow the Holy Torah to this day.
We also hold to the principle of the Holy Torah that cannot be breached that a person may not be tried for any alleged crime on suspicion alone but must have two adult and validly qualified witnesses. We as Jewish people have always refrained from breaking any of the Laws from Heaven and the problem of child abuse by people of either gender is of great concern to us.
Jewish laws have very many concepts regarding guarding property and most importantly regarding guarding human life from inappropriate, accidental or deliberate assault or damage. It is of great importance that precautions should be taken to prevent any inappropriate sexual misconduct or other abuse in our institutions.
These measures should make the use of video by closed circuit TV with warning notices and a buddy system of pairs of children responsible to be aware of the buddy’s location and movements at all times even on visiting the rest rooms, where each child would be attended by his or her paired buddy accompanying outside the cubicles, waiting and observing. Also similar or as similar as possible monitoring measures should be in place on school outings, camps or other excursions. Each child pair would be of the same sex. All precautionary measures should be accompanied by classes repeated on a periodic basis, in addition to vetting employees and volunteers before appointment to any position.
Jewish law considers abhorrent any unsubstantiated allegations based on hearsay or acts of vigilante justice (injustice) as they are against the foundation of justice which is a pillar of the Holy Torah and therefore the precautionary route outlined above is the wisest course to take to ensure that there is no abuse of children.
+eliana miller in principle yes, we also use another one "the one to burn cain down" i.e. one can do so providing you can bring them down in flames, so video documents tapes etc may be ok or witness evidence. vigilante justice is practiced and sometimes cops may be involved concealing. its also a proviso that child ausers don't leave traces at times. we had jw eldrs go to cops accusing me even, obviously I wasn't in an ambulance for nothing so claiming nothing happened is a lie and abhorrent. that is the principle I used abhorrent thing/profane/vile. legal violation etc.also some data was deemed heresay such as claims of what happened when they weren't there and were 35 miles away, it was also concealing, obviously they wouldn't be arguing about it if it wasn't over that, so its a simple yes or no, so something had. I didn't say penetrated I said sex assault/violence/injury etc, paedophile(s), the other children were also being subjected to similar profile building and "stories" I had previously reported sexual intrusion etc and had reported missing records they were found, so I hadn't lied so I wasn't abhorrent.and yes after I was assaulted finding I was telling the truth is also a violation, I doe apply to accidental loss too, which im glad to hear you understand. it applies in a zero harm basis, as I understand it violence is only acceptable while being attacked in defence as I was. the problem is that reporting requirements for ministers in the uk require them to get and take data to the police they refused. id refused them over refusing normal torah and guillotine rules actually he refused to join the lines so id refused that and was thrown out, thats cool who wants to be there anywaybut id always refused that, so id been thrown aside as you may know, and as they refused to join no one must be returned there (like Abraham and the attendant) or them permitted back. so my families jaunt with the jw,s ended.it was actually that they just rrefused to join/marry called blaspheming allah/god, it was on the court bundle.once that was ascertained without doubt it was ok to leave permanently but I had to make absolutely sure as I did.we had that problem its like a confessional priest theres only one at times. and guarding property in the procedures is also a consideration as some try to ransack the victim, criminal damage did occur in reprisal attacks. as you know we can all do that. you can I can the others could we can all do thee law guilotines etc, I can see yours as well and read it. as you say he pillar of justice and freedomso how come they cant ? actually they lie and blame the victim you may know of a "despoiler" when they ransack like abysynia and rape theyre like that. if you see what I mean you and Ishmael are normal to me, I can see hear and read you. the responses I found elsewhere weren't even legal or human. so of course they conceal and may be corrupt I screameddd where id found that and went berserk, over the evil and sick violence.the other children were similar in other religions id actually woken up in hospital with adult girl child rapes at times. actually I couldn't even recognize them, what or who they were supposed to be. barbarians wasn't the word. that's what its like.
+eliana miller p.s they were using an abhorrent thing i.e. lie. using pattern maps with an abhorrent thing inside, called making a lie, called making abhorrent things, called trying to make me an abhorrent thing, called trying to force me into blasphemy. as the torah is holy as the law I couldn't violate the holy of holies. the child abusers were in that area.
@joan of arc Where is that alleged to have been written, please, on that website? That is not an orthodox Jewish website.
@joan of arcNothing I could see under "genius". Can you pinpoint it for me, the www at the top of the page will do it, thanks. As I said it's not an Orthodox Jewish website.
Talmud says do it.
Pinchas is a bad example. That was consensual sex between a Jew and non Jew.
This is adults forcing kids to have sex.
Please don't use his act of zealous murder as an example to follow.
I love yr video and that was a bad example .
