Jerusalem Hills responds to the needs of the at-risk children and adolescents that arrive at our facilities, with our unique long-term relationship-based treatment program. This program, Therapy in Life Space, is centered upon the development of a one-on-one relationship between the child and the caregiver, and the careful integration of the child’s family into the healing process.
The Children’s Home campus resides in the Jerusalem Hills just off Highway 1 between Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. It accommodates close to 100 boys and girls from ages six to fifteen years, divided into two age groups: The Elementary Unit for children aged six to eleven, and the Junior Unit for those aged 12 to 15 years.
Over the years, the Jerusalem Hills staff has gained extensive experience in institutional and individual treatment of children at risk. In 1999, the Training Center was established to share this expertise and enable therapists to deepen their understanding of the therapeutic process. The center offers a variety of courses, seminars, and workshops in individual psychotherapy, residential treatment, and staff training and leadership.
The Jerusalem HiIlls Therapuetic Centers operates a community outpatient clinic in Jerusalem to connect the expertise of the Children’s Home with the broader community. Our services include individual and family therapy for children and young adults, mentoring and support groups for parents, and a full suite of psychodiagnostic assessments.
In order to give our children the best possible care, we rely heavily on your donations. Donations are given to both important projects and day-to-day operations.

JHTC is committed to restoring to each at-risk boy and girl under our care their faith in themselves and their belief that the world is meant for them as well.
The success of our highly personalized long term treatment program depends to a large extent on the generosity and support of our friends and supporters all over the world.
Your support will make a real difference and a lasting impact.
