This isn’t the first time Hallel Abromovitz Silverman has advocated for the organization. In fact, this February she was one of 10 female worshippers arrested for wearing prayer shawls during a women’s rosh chodesh prayer service. Her mother (and Sarah’s sister), Rabbi Susan Abramowitz Silverman, was also arrested.
