The Jerusalem Hills Children's Home

The Jerusalem Hills Children's Home, is JWI (Jewish Women International) cornerstone program since 1943, treats Israel's most vulnerable and neglected children, helping them to overcome the trauma of their early years.

The Children's Home offers a home and treatment for about 100 boys and girls ages 7-18 from all sectors of Israeli life. The facility is internationally known for its unique approach, emphasizing drug-free treatment, intensive counseling, family involvement in the rehabilitative process, and an intensive training program for professional staff. Children are able to attend school on-site as part of a comprehensive treatment plan. In addition to residential treatment, the Children's Home also runs an out-patient clinic.

An accredited training center for special education, social work and clinical psychology students, the Children's Home conducts research programs and exchanges information with Ben Gurion University, Hebrew University, the Yale University Child Study Center, Baylor University and other international institutions. Mental health professionals worldwide look to the program for new methods to aid troubled children.

Almost 1,000 children have graduated from the Children's Home, with an average stay of four years. The program is credited with the greatest success -- a recovery rate of 60% -- of any institution of its kind. It is a registered "amutah" (a not-for-profit organization) funded by Israel’s Ministries of Health, Education, and Welfare, and supported by JWI and friends throughout the world.

Please support the Children's Home with a donation today.

On July 7, 2009, the Children's Home dedicated its brand new facility in Kyriat Yearim, outside Jerusalem.

SOS Children's Villages - Brazil

SOS Children's Villages is active in 132 countries and territories worldwide. The variety of this international work is brought together by the umbrella organisation SOS-Kinderdorf International, which unites all of the autonomous national associations.



SOS Children's Village of Sao Bernardo do Campo - SP, Brazil, is located in a wildlife sanctuary about 35 kilometers southeast of San Paulo City. SOS Children's Village of Sao Bernardo do Campo was built on a five acre wooded site near a dam and opened its doors in April 1970.

SOS Children's Village consists of twelve houses, where up to 81 children can find a new home. In addition, a house called SOS Aunts (SOS mother trainees or family helpers who support the SOS mothers during their daily work and fill in for them when they are sick or on vacation), and an area of administration and service. Children's Village SOS Children usually attend local schools.

An SOS Social Centre provides care diary up to 165 pre-school children from the local community. An SOS Youth Facility in the city sleeps up to 24 young people from SOS Children's Village. Young people tend to move from the SOS Children's Village SOS Youth mechanism when they start a vocational training course or go for higher education. With the support of young skilled workers, young people develop realistic perspectives for the future, learn to take responsibility and increasingly make their own decisions. They are encouraged to develop team spirit and create contacts with relatives and friends as well as with authorities and potential employers.

Emunah Bet Elazraki Children's Home

"Every child needs one person who believes in him” (Rabbi Karlibach)

At Emunah Bet Elazraki Children's Home we believe in every boy and girl.

Emunah Bet Elazraki Children's Home is the warm, loving and promoting home for over 200 "children at risk" aged 0-18.

Their families are unable to provide their children's basic needs and/or provide them with tools for development and growth. The children are referred to us by the welfare authorities and are assimilated into our unique frameworks.

At Emunah Bet Elazraki we provide a home and a family for children at risk, supply their physiological demands, and enable them to grow in a supportive, warm and loving environment. They receive therapeutic and academic aid, in addition to educational and social assistance. All this is provided by the most professional, dedicated team. Among other things, we provide transportation for our children to and from 22 schools in Netanya.

Emunah Bet Elazraki Children's Home was established in Netanya in 1969. In 1976 we became an independent non profit organization operating in cooperation and with the support of the Ministry of Labor and Welfare, the Ministry of Education, Netanya municipality, "Emunah", and many donors from Israel and elsewhere. Every child that arrives on our doorstep becomes our child and will always remain part of the Elazraki family. We are proud to act as mother and father for many children, a large portion of them already independent, contributing adults who are raising their children in loving homes of their own.

Naturally, the population of children at risk includes siblings. At Emunah Bet Elazraki we keep brothers and sisters together. Our success in this area reflects in the mutual care among those brothers and sisters.

There are 5 frameworks at Emunah Bet Elazraki Children's Home. The boys and girls are divided into groups by gender and age:

  1. The main Children's House – for boys and girls aged 6-13, in which all our diverse activities take place.

  2. "Bet Esther", The Teenage Girls' House – where 14-18 year old girls develop emotional and social skills and prepare for independent life.

  3. The Teenage Boys' House – a special framework for boys, 14-18 year old boys.

  4. The Infants Emergency Shelter – for babies and young toddlers who have been removed from their parents' care due to an immediate threat for their lives.

  5. The Family Intervention Center – a 3 year program for rehabilitation and enrichment of the family unit.

Here at Emunah Bet Elazraki Children's Home we believe in every boy and girl. We believe a receiving child grows up to be a giving adult.

Elazraki – what’s that? History has it that…

Vision and Goals – Focusing on the Future

Children at risk – Who ”falls” under this category?
