Hear our Voices. Sexual and Gender-Based Violence in the October 7th Hamas Terror Attack

January 14 @ 10:00 AM11:00 AM EST

Despite the deafening silence from most of the world to condemn it, the
barbaric use of sexual and gender-based violence against women is part of the
horrible reality that befell Israel on 10/7.

Join us for our next Coffee Press event to take a deeper dive into this topic.
Ayelet Razin Bet Or, past Director at the Authority for Advancement of the
Status of Women will provide an overview of these attacks and the ability of
Israeli systems to react and treat survivors. We will address the
international response of the UN and women’s organizations and the impact of
these declarations on the increase in anti-Semitism around the world. Plus
conclude by looking to the future — including reflections from the women’s
leadership mission, recommended policies and the next step on the way to
recovery and healing.

Grab your favorite mug and drop in for this eye-opening Coffee Talk. Register

We look forward to seeing you,
Betsy Heuer, Jeff Schlussel and Ron Sollish
