לוגו עומקא דליבא

General Background

A study conducted in ultra-Orthodox educational institutions revealed a lack of content, creativity and investment in teaching the core values and concepts of Judaism, resulting in many youth feeling spiritually and personally disconnected. It became clear that the causes behind the drop-out phenomenon from these institutions were behavioral or spiritual. These problems called for new, relevant solutions, suitable for addressing the spiritual challenges faced by ultra-Orthodox youth.

Target Population

Students in grades 9-12, teachers in ultra-Orthodox yeshivot and girls’ seminaries, and teachers in high schools for at-risk youth within the ultra-Orthodox school system.

Vision and goals

Building students’ deep connection to Jewish values, Jewish beliefs and the Jewish community, by training teachers to change the content and methods of the education they provide on the fundamentals.
