Support At Risk Youth

Adolescence is an unsettling time, accompanied by crisis, various identity problems, social and moral dilemmas, while testing the limits of what is permitted and what is not. Today, our youth is exposed to various risky situations, while the age of exposure to these situations is dropping. The figures today point to the fact that the risk factors for youth are rising, especially for immigrant youth.

​

The Neot Shaked Neighborhood is one of Netanya's more underprivileged areas. It is characterized by socio-economic distress, demographic problems and has a high number of immigrant families. Despite all the risk factors, the youth in this neighborhood did not have a unique response to their needs. The available youth programs were spread out; there was no holistic, all encompassing approach in this field. Due to these circumstances, and the wish to prevent the situation from deteriorating, a new multi disciplinary youth center was recently renovated in this neighborhood for this purpose.
