So, after a boost of good news about the freed hostages, we decided to start the week full of hope ❤️🇮🇱
The Central Region-Shfela staff of Bayit Cham’s “Shacharit” program met this week for refreshing learning and discussion about mental health illnesses/disorders and the recovery model. This isn’t about clinical recovery, but rather a process where individuals dealing with mental health challenges learn to live with and alongside the illness, leading meaningful, productive, and fulfilling lives as part of the community.
One of the components of the model is “Tikva – Hope” – the ability to envision and see the future with a sense of capability and the belief that success is possible and achievable step by step. After a mental health crisis where people “forget” their identity, desires, abilities, and can’t see their future, finding hope is not simple. In the vocational rehabilitation process, vocational coaches shine a “spotlight” on the person’s positive abilities and traits, helping each one start to shine and even weave dreams for the future and achieve them in reality.
So we hope that, just as in personal processes, on a national level too, we will experience healing and hope ❤️
Thanks to all our champion staff members who lead exciting journeys with our service recipients 🏆
Big thanks to Noa and Rikki 💪 who led the staff meeting together with Sarah, the regional director 🤟❤️
Have a great week full of hope‼️
