What is Bnei Simcha?
Bnei Simcha is a unique Yeshiva for “special needs" men ages 17 to 28. It is designed to incorporate students who are independently functioning and who are capable of maintaining academic schedules and who need assistance in learning, communication, life and social skills. The Yeshiva is a warm and joyous learning environment offering a program personalized for each student's “special” needs. We look at each individual student and empower him with the healing wisdom of the Torah and Psycho-social techniques and treatments. Mainstreaming is an integral part of our program by allowing the students to participate in a regular American Yeshiva learning program and fulfilling their growth and potential. |
|
At Yeshiva Bnei Simcha, the first English-speaking, adult special needs yeshiva in Israel with mainstreaming, we believe in our students and... they believe in themselves!
