Ezer L'Yeshivos

A Critical Lifeline

Growth
The setup of our chinuch system was modeled for small-scale mosdos, where there was an intimate and personal connection between the administration, the staff, the families and the talmidim. Mechanchim maintained a steady finger on the pulse of each talmid’s standing and progress. Parents maintained a hands-on connection with mechanchim.

With a smaller community, mosdos were geared to cater to more diverse range of learning capacities and personality types. Curriculums and performance standards were less conforming, catering to a more diverse student population. Mechanchim carried a lighter load, allowing for more focus on those who need more attention.
Challenges
The explosive communal growth, קע"ה, over the past ten to fifteen years spans the spectrum of virtually all facets of Klal Yisroel. The difficulty in keeping pace with this rapid growth is most acutely felt by our mosdos hachinuch. The dramatic change in the size and scope of our institutions has brought with it a host of new challenges.
Stresses Of The System
The wide range of Yeshiva Ketanah options, with each of them catering to a very specific level of learning, discipline and performance, has made choosing an appropriate Yeshiva an overwhelming challenge. The stressful process and the disappointment of rejection has taken a heavy toll on many bucherim’s stamina causing heartache, emotional scars, as well as more severe issues.

Ezer L’Yeshivos
Spearheaded by R Zelig Mendlowitz, Ezer L’Yeshivos was born out of a recognition of the need for a multi-pronged approach to address the various needs and fallouts born out of our community’s growth. Many of the challenges are a collective result of overlapping issues that need to be addressed simultaneously through a collaborative approach.

Initiatives

The following are some of the first initiatives undertaken by Ezer L’Yeshivos.
Enrollment
Consulting
A staff of knowledgeable guides work with the bochur, the parents, and the machanech to help navigate the process, weighing the pros and cons of each prospective Yeshiva Ketaneh choice against the unique strengths and attributes of the individual talmid, as well as his family background and affiliation.
Self-Referral
Database
A website with detailed info on the many professional agencies, organizations, therapists, mentors, and educational experts available in different fields, providing easy and anonymous access to trusted professionals for parents, rabbonim, mechanchim and others.
Hashkafa &
Psychological Training
This specially developed course for menahalim and mechanchim is given in collaboration with renowned psychologists, social workers, chinuch experts and others, to help our mechanchim better identify, understand, navigate and accommodate many of the challenges facing bochurim in the contemporary world of today.
Wardrobe
Assistance
Lack of funds for clothing and accessories can be a devastating source of shame, particularly for a teenager struggling with social acceptance amongst peers. The Keren Halbasha Wardrobe Assistance program will provide generous grants for clothing
Meshivas
Nufesh
Geared to the growing number of cheder graduates with emotional, behavioral or educational diagnoses such as OCD, ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, etc. this division is staffed by a group of six professional counselors and therapists with experience in professional diagnosis and referral. Under their guidance special-needs students are either integrated into a standard classroom or referred to the most suitable specialty options available.
Accommodations
Often acceptance in the appropriate Yeshiva will be contingent on a bochur’s arranging their own accommodations. Lack of funds for this can result in not getting accepted in an appropriate Yeshiva. The Accommodations projects provides grants to help subsidize room and board for bochurim in dire financial need.
Tutoring &
Mentoring
Tutoring and mentoring for bochurim and parents to keep them up to par with the classroom progress.

Bein
Hazmanim
As is well known, lack of proper supervision during the Bein Hazmanim break can have a devastating effect on a bochur’s spiritual status and overall development. One key achievement of this initiative has been the arrangement and oversight of Kosher phones for bochurim during Bein Hazmanim.
