Our Mission

---

Tzniut is an important Jewish value that gives many a feeling of dignity, empowerment, and pride. However, when taught and discussed in a way that is negative or overbearing, it often leads to feelings of resentment and disconnection from both the concept of tzniut and the Orthodox community in general. 

Reclaiming Dignity aims to clarify this important topic through hashkafic and halachic explorations that untangle the threads of mitzvah, middah, halacha, and cultural practice, highlighting the universality and accessibility of tzniut. The book, edited by Bracha Poliakoff, includes over twenty essays from well-known educators and influencers who discuss this topic in an honest, nuanced, and balanced way. It also includes a comprehensive and innovative, source-based method to understanding the halachot of tzniut as they apply to both men and women by Rabbi Anthony Manning, based on the unique approach of Rabbi Yitzchak Berkovits, shlita.  

Reclaiming Dignity has received several haskamot from leading rabbanim and enthusiastic responses from pre-readers. ​
