From Car Crash Survivor to Passing Laws as a Street Safety Activist…
From recovery to rewriting the rules, Amber’s experience as a car crash survivor has also fueled her work as a street safety activist. In 2024, as a member of Families for Safe Streets, she helped pass Sammy’s Law. Then in 2025, she played a key role in passing the Stop Super Speeders bill through the New York State Senate. She is now working to pass the bill through the New York State Assembly in the 2026 legislative session and finalize it into law in honor of Natasha Saada and her two children, who were killed by a super speeder on Ocean Parkway in Brooklyn (March 2025).

The Agunah Crisis: Protest & Policy
Amber is a leading voice in The Agunah Crisis. Her highly visible role began after being refused a religious divorce herself. She has supported other women in similar situations and championed a New York State bill to make coercive control a Class E felony. Amber Adler is a former agunah—a Jewish woman whose husband refuses to grant her a religious divorce, known as a gett. This movement inhibiting refusal is a form of domestic violence known as coercive control. Under Jewish law, an agunah cannot remarry (or even date) without a religious divorce of which only a man can grant a woman.
After surviving years of abuse, religious divorce refusal, and the pain of being trapped in an unwanted marriage, Amber broke free—transforming her journey from agunah to empowered and divorced. As she fought for her freedom and in the years following, the determined mother of two, smiled through the heartache, keeping her struggles hidden—until another agunah reached out for help.
Amber remembered the pain of her own experience and immediately took action. She rallied for change, joined protests, and launched social media outcries. Determined to do more, she partnered with elected officials and helped draft legislation that would make coercive control a Class E Felony in New York State. Today, she continues to support efforts to protect and empower other agunot.

Combating Antisemitism
After an emotional conversation with Nobel Laureate Elie Wiesel at Shaare Zion Synagogue in Brooklyn, Amber was determined to ensure that “never again” truly means never again. Amber has spent over a decade on the front lines fighting antisemitism through activism, education, and direct action. Amber brings Holocaust survivors into public schools, makes community building events and has secured over $200,000 in city funding to support Holocaust education as a tool to combat hate in public schools.
Amber has also rallied, protested, spoken at vigils, and publicly denounced antisemitic incidents and divisive rhetoric. In 2020, she was selected as one of only 15 individuals to work with the NYC Mayor’s Office for the Prevention of Hate Crimes. She and her family have also personally deescalated multiple attempted antisemitic attacks against them, strengthening her resolve to speak out. For her efforts, she received the Women of Distinction Award from the New York State Assembly and continues to be a leading voice against hate and bigotry.
