The Yashar Initiative provides a framework for healthy marital conflict resolution. Rabbanim, legal professionals, and experienced therapists together developed the Heskem Choson V'kallah, which enables couples to enter marriage with an ideal arrangement in place in the event of future conflict.

Yashar’s goal is to promote honest discussion about the relationship and provide common ground acceptance between the parties. The Heskem Agreement is a contract, written in accordance with halacha, that has been accepted by North American Gedolei Yisroel. It is a pragmatic document, legally binding, and state specific.
