Israel Elwyn

Established in 1984, Israel Elwyn (IE) operates in collaboration with and supported by the Ministry of Welfare and Social Affairs; Ministry of Education; Ministry of Health; and local municipalities nationwide. IE serves over 5,400 individuals with disabilities, including toddlers, children, youth, young adults, adults and seniors.

We provide a wide range of innovative programs and supports that include early intervention centers; extended day programs in preschools and schools; transitional programs for youth and young adults; support programs for young adults who volunteer for military or national service; job training and employment support; adult day centers; retiree programs; supported living services; self-advocacy programs; as well as cultural and recreational programs.

It is our belief that all individuals have the ability to advocate for themselves and to stand up for their own rights. Developing this capacity enables individuals with disabilities to take responsibility for their own lives, to impact their environment, and to fulfill their needs and desires.
