Born into a strict Ultra Orthodox family and the daughter of a Rabbi, Chasya’s life was under complete control. She describes how modesty begins at 3 yrs old, as to not cause men to “stumble” and how slaughtering chickens in front of chiIdren for their sins scarred her for life. Blamed for being SA’d by a boy as a chiId, and severely pun*shed, her life was under constant scrutiny and judgement. Also on the Autism spectrum with no mental health support, she faces further stigma and challenges.  Coming soon in part 2, we will discuss the shady dealings of the community with law enforcement, judges, hit men and more.  Click here to watch on YouTube Click here to watch PT 2 of Chasya's interview   Catch her on Soft White Underbelly Find Chasya on Instagram @daughterchasya  Donations to Chasya's Go Fund Me We want to meet you in real life!  Come adventure with us on our 2nd C2C VACATION!  Click here to go to the official booking page Subscribe to our C2C "CLIPS" Channel!
