Jewish Federations Support 16 New Mental Health Facilities in Israel

Jewish Federations of North America (JFNA) and the Israeli government are coming together in a remarkable $14 million initiative prioritizing mental health care for Israelis facing trauma since October 7. The partnership will create 16 community-based mental health centers, which will provide much-needed services to 200,000 Israelis each year. The centers will provide day-treatment and hospitalization for patients in need of intensive care in a welcoming environment without the stigma attached to mental health treatment in hospitals. Target populations for mental health care include survivors of October 7 with post-traumatic stress disorder, current patients facing heightened distress because of the conflict, evacuees experiencing increased anxiety, family issues or sexual-related crises and children and teens who would otherwise face delays in diagnosis due to lack of personnel.
