Editor-in-Chief Emeritus, JTA (Copyright 1983, JTA, Inc.) COMMUNAL PROBLEMS: Wife abuse is becoming a serious issue for Americans, including Jews. The issue is high on the social agenda. The American Jewish Commit- tee is engaged in studying the growing problem of spouse abuse among Jews. The New York Federation of Jewish Philanthropies tackled the issue at an all-day conference of its Task Force on Marriage and Divorce, and gave a grant of $250,000 to a YM-YWHA which opened three years ago a shelter for battered Jewish women. American Jews are just beginning to recognize the extent of spouse abuse in their own midst. But there is still, a great deal of reluctance to deal openly with the issue. It is feared that open discussion of this subject may damage the widely-accepted cultural perception that Jews enjoy a stable family life. The extent of wife abuse is hard to estimate. Fear and shame prevent many Jewish women from reporting their cases and from seeking help. This, despite the fact that every state considers spouse abuse a crime, and the federal government, until recent budget cuts, funded local projects to curb family violence. There is no statistical information on the various forms of wife abuse among Jews. But researchers and family service professionals assert that the problem mirrors the situation in society as a whole. The National Institute of Mental Health estimates that frequent physical abuse is in almost one-third of the families in the country. Social wel- fare agencies point at a jump in the incidence of reported spouse abuse. A survey conducted by the Family Service Association of America found that 74 percent of its member agencies registered increases in family violence. Hebrew U.
