ABOUT US
The Circumcision Resource Center is a
nonprofit educational organization with the purpose of informing the
public and professionals about the practice of circumcision. Our
mission is to raise awareness and facilitate healing. The Center is a
valuable source of circumcision information for parents and children's
advocates; childbirth educators and allied professionals; medical,
mental health, and academic people; Jews; and others. Our Directors
(majority is Jewish*) and Professional Advisory Board members
(one-third is Jewish*) consist of researchers and clinicians in the
fields of medicine, mental health, and social science.
Based on a review of medical and
psychological literature and our own research and experience, we
conclude that circumcision is not advisable.
