The director of our boys program, R’ Shmuli Falk, has spent the past ten years serving the Ramat Beit Shemesh community as a mentor to many boys struggling to find their place in our society. He started out as a mentor for our program six years ago whilst simultaneously studying at the Path Center in Jerusalem gaining his certificate in Clinical and Mental Health Counseling. He has now joined our team and is dedicated to helping guide parents and mentors towards the best possible future for our mentees. At Yedidim, R’ Shmuli supervises the mentors, acts as liaison between the parents and mentors and meets with the schools, advocating the benefits of a child having a mentor and making sure that no child falls through the system unnoticed.
