Our Mission

The mission of Magen Yeladim Child Safety Institute is to provide a protective safety net for children through preventing the incidence of child abuse, intervening effectively and with cultural sensitivity when abuse occurs; and providing avenues and resources for ongoing support to promote healing for those children and their families.

MY Child Safety Institute was founded as an answer to an urgent problem in orthodox Jewish communities around the world. We believe that all children need a childhood free from emotional and physical violence and the long-term repercussions of such trauma.

Our mission, therefore, is to provide a protective safety net for children by:

  • Preventing incidences of child abuse through education
  • Intervening effectively and with cultural sensitivity when abuse occurs
  • Providing avenues and resources for ongoing support to promote healing for those children and their families

Our mission is pursued through our child safety programs.

As a 501(c)3 charitable organization, we are grateful to our donors and benefactors for allowing us to pursue this critical mission. Please consider supporting Magen Yeladim in preventing and responding to child abuse. Donate Today
