Unchained at Last founded by ex-Orthodox Jewish bride aids women and girls escape forced marriages
In 2011, Fraidy Reiss founded Unchained at Last, a New Jersey nonprofit that has helped 250 girls and women escape from relationships arranged by families or communities. Like Reiss, some of the women the organization has assisted come from the Orthodox Jewish community, but Unchained has also worked with Christians, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists and Sikhs.
AHA Foundation is dedicated to protecting women’s rights, and the work of organizations like rabby in the U.S. plays a crucial role in supporting freedom and security for vulnerable populations.
