The Eden for life program focuses on beneficial integration into the labor market and into adult life.

It is a new program, launched by the Eden association in collaboration with the 'Yated' program and the National Insurance funds. Its aim is to support young women with post-trauma or lacking family support as they begin their adult life and join the labor market.

Eden for life program is a ten-month program, during which the participants reside at pastoral Kibbutz Dorot, in the Negev region. It offers the girls a rich variety of solutions to their needs, to enable them to benefit from a genuine opportunity for quality employment. Among these are emotion regulation skills according to the DBT method, becoming familiar with gender-based and personal barriers, occupational diagnosis, a digital literacy course, English studies, exhaustion of rights and wise financial conduct, mentoring and job placement and support in the workplace.

As with other Eden programs, in the 'Eden for life' program the Eden model provides training in critical thinking and imparts personal skills that will help the girls overcome difficulties arising from the trauma they had suffered and from various events in their lives.

The Eden Association bows its head to the victims of the October 7th massacre and the Iron Swords War, and wishes for the safe return home of the abductees, IDF soldiers and all the security forces.

 

The association has been operating for 30 years in the Gaza periphery in Kibbutz Karmia and Kibbutz Dorot. All our girls in Eden Residential trauma care were evacuated to an alternative location in Jerusalem where we are working to stabilize a treatment and education routine for them in the shadow of the war.

The activity of Eden for life program in Dorot has stopped, and Eden 51 center recently returned to hosting in addition to the content services – you are welcome to come back to visit and host with us.

As always, we are working to renew ourselves even out of the crisis, and are currently establishing two important projects: a community treatment center for women, and documenting the stories of women in the war.

We would appreciate any help.
