The employment situation in Israel’s economy is not easy for many of us due to the war. In times of crisis, workers with disabilities are often the first to be hard hit. That’s why our employment promoters/vocational coaches throughout Israel have been working extremely hard since October 7th to prevent this from happening.
They provide emotional support, strengthen skills, intensively scout for jobs and contact potential employers. They are leveraging the crisis as an opportunity for positive change❣️
Yesterday our rehab staff even participated in a dedicated training session on the topic, facilitated by Yuval Ashkenazi in order to maximize all available options and get an additional boost of reinforcement for their extensive work.
It was fruitful and effective!🙏
And a little spoiler for the end – towards the end of the year, despite Iron Swords, our vocational rehab staff managed to preserve an 85% (!) placement rate for our service recipients who found jobs in the mainstream workplace.👏
C-H-A-M-P-I-O-N-S‼️
