Yehudis’ work focuses on safeguarding, institutional responsibility, and harm prevention within religious and closed communities. This includes forced marriage, so-called honour-based abuse, education policy, and the ways power and authority operate within faith-based institutions. Her work spans research, policy engagement, consultancy, and public discussion.

Yehudis works with universities, policymakers, charities, and professional networks to help them understand safeguarding risk and institutional failure in religious contexts. She brings together evidence that is usually held or analysed separately, producing new analysis that informs research design, policy development, and organisational decision-making in sensitive or high-risk settings.

No. Yehudis is not a counsellor, therapist, or legal adviser, and she does not provide individual casework, legal advice or pastoral support. Her work is institutional and research-focused, aimed at improving systems, policy, and safeguarding frameworks rather than providing individual support.

This work is selectively undertaken on a case by case basis. Please use the contact form to make enquiries.
