For over 27 years, the Aharai! movement has been empowering youth and young adults from all parts of Israeli society – with a focus on the geo-social periphery – to enhance their sense of capability, promote equal opportunities, and strengthen mutual responsibility within and between different sectors of society.
Aharai! operates in 132 local authorities, 47 youth villages and welfare youth frameworks, and 72 ultra-Orthodox yeshivas, running 345 youth groups that serve as “preparatory tracks for adult life.”
Most are three-year programs for teens aged 16–18 from across the social spectrum. Some are 13th-grade pre-army programs, others are gap year initiatives, including programs that integrate youth with special needs and young Arab participants.
Aharai! also runs an alumni organization that supports our 63,000 graduates in their journey toward higher education and meaningful employment.
