At Shlavim we believe that every factor that might have a negative impact on the success
of our children should be addressed. Students often act out in school because of stress
in the home. It is not uncommon for parents with large families to find themselves in difficult financial straits. One or both parents may be unemployed or underemployed. They might need to learn new skills or need advice on running their own business. Sometimes it is simply a matter of learning how to budget properly.

Our goal is to identify challenges faced by Haredi families in the social periphery and help them overcome these challenges and maximize their earning capabilities.
Shlavim staff members work closely with rabbis, schools, and social service agencies.
They refer families to us who may benefit from financial counseling and fiscal guidance.
