About Us: Our Specialized Yeshiva Program

Our continuously developing program focuses on the individual needs of these teenagers, many of whom also have specific learning difficulties, such as ADD/ADHD, dyslexia, etc. We offer a combination of Torah and general studies tailored to meet the needs of each individual student. In addition to our general program, we have organized specialized courses for boys interested in ritual slaughter (sh'chita), emergency first aid volunteers for Magen David Adom and Hatzalah and computers studies.

One of our major goals is two-fold:

  1. Provide the necessary spiritual guidance, academic skills, training, encouragement and support which would allow some youths to re-enter the mainstream yeshiva systems.
  2. Provide spiritual guidance, academic and vocational training to youths who, for various reasons, won't be re-entering the mainstream yeshiva system.

Because of negative educational and social experiences which many of these youths have encountered, we strive, through our activities and discussions, to help them recognize and strengthen their spiritual selves through Torah study and special activities, to develop positive self-awareness and self confidence, and especially to recognize and develop their many individual talents and abilities which HaShem has bestowed upon each one.
