In 2014, Rabbi Hayim Herring, PhD and I co-edited Keeping Faith in Rabbis, a wonderful compilation of essays. One of those fine essays, “Preventing Clergy Sexual Abuse” by Rabbi Ellen Lewis, seems extremely timely and relevant these days in light of the numerous sexual assault charges coming to light. Andrew Barron of Avenida Books supported our idea to make Rabbi Lewis’ essay available as a free downloadable PDF on both Herring and my websites. Please share the essay with folks who could find it of use, and let’s keep this very important conversation going for the safety and flourishing of all people.
