'Women's Spirit' works to promote the economic independence of women survivors of violence in Israel and strives for social change from a feminist perspective and commitment to social and gender justice. 

Women’s Spirit has been recognized for its role as a world leader in the field of violence against women and has been accorded the status of Special Advisor to the United Nations Economic-Social Council (ECOSOC) of the UN in 2019. The receipt of this status constitutes international recognition of Women’s Spirit’s activities in working for the good of women survivors of violence in Israel and as a unique model for working with women who have managed to extract themselves from the vicious cycle of abuse – by developing economic independence.

Motty Reif is the head of the Friends of the Female Spirit Association since 2018.
