Kallah Companion Website

Nishmat has created yet another impressive website through their Yoatzot Halacha program. The site, a companion to kallah classes, was put together by Dr. Deena Zimmerman, author of A Lifetime Companion to the Laws of Jewish Family Life. Here is a description:

We’d like to draw your attention to Kallah Companion, our new internet service. Kallah Companion is a comprehensive online curriculum in taharat hamishpacha designed especially for brides. Intended to supplement traditional personal instruction, the course enables kallot to prepare and review what they learn with their teachers, and to explore questions they might not otherwise encounter. It is also helpful for kallah or classroom teachers to use to supplement their instruction.

The course includes:

• Clear, friendly, practical instruction in the laws of taharat hamishpacha
• Explanations of the conceptual and logical framework underlying the halacha
• Interactive review questions following each lesson and each unit
• Helpful guidance for shalom bayit
• Straightforward information on women's health and intimacy
• Unlimited opportunities to ask questions and discuss issues with a yoetzet halacha (a female advisor certified in the area of taharat hamishpacha)

Kallah Companion, a not for profit project, was created under the direction of Dr. Deena Zimmerman, the author of A Lifetime Companion to the Laws of Jewish Family Life, who is both a yoetzet halacha and a practicing physician. Rabbi Yehuda Herzl Henkin, author of four volumes of halachic responsa B'nai Banim, provides expert halachic supervision and guidance for all aspects of the course. A sample lesson can be viewed here.

Wow, thanks for posting this info. I am sure it will come to great use for many kalla's and even married ladies that need a refresher (after babies, etc)....
