The children of the soldiers
In a nutshell, our program
The Yedidim Association provides personal mentoring to children and teenagers whose parents are recognized by the Ministry of Defense due to a mental injury or head injury.
Mentoring is provided nationwide, by mentors who have been screened and trained for the role, and are accompanied by professional guidance throughout the year. Mentoring takes place in a format of approximately 4 hours per week, and includes personal-emotional guidance, building resilience, strengthening learning skills, social support and joint activities according to the child’s needs and in cooperation with the family.
The Yedidim team consists of professionals from various fields, including social workers and psychologists with training and experience working with children and families. The team provides continuous guidance, is available for inquiries throughout the year, and maintains ongoing contact with the Ministry of Defense, with the aim of promoting solutions tailored to each family.
