Servicing the Need

Shmuel_Kamenetzky 2

"Areivim is a community organization serving a community need. Accordingly, even those fortunate families who have never required Areivim’s services are responsible to support its work. There is no difference between supporting Areivim and supporting Tomchei Shabbos and Hatzoloh."

- HARAV SHMUEL KAMINETZKY, SHLITA

We speak for our youth when they can't speak for themselves — in the legal system, to their healthcare team, and amongst their families.

Areivim’s unique “adoptive counseling” approach takes every teen under someone’s personal wing, and provides healthy outlets for their energy.

Rabbi Gluck's popular series of lectures, delivered in Torah articles, online video, and audio shiurim, focus on building healthy families.

When appropriate, we help find job opportunities for our youth, in placements at which they are most likely to succeed.

I feel that by Areivim they really understand me. They don’t judge me or put me down. This is really special to me because I didn’t know that I could find people in the world that are there for me to guide me in the right way…"
