Groundbreaking welfare center in Umm al-Fahm supports Northern Israeli Arabs through psychological and practical emergency assistance

"Providing tailored responses and emotional support during critical times - Ministry of Welfare and Social Security"

Tel Aviv, July 3

In September, the first resilience center of Israel's Ministry of Welfare and Social Security designed for Arab society opened in Umm al-Fahm, in northern Israel, serving more than 200,000 residents. Since its opening, the center has helped 850 residents, many of them during the war with Iran when hundreds of northern Arab-Israelis received assistance.

Data published by the Ministry of Welfare and Social Security indicates that hundreds of residents and professionals were assisted by the center's staff, 110 of whom did so through emotional support over the phone.

The Resilience Center team was in direct and intensive contact with all social welfare departments and member authorities of the Resilience Center in order to gather needs and provide tailored responses.

The responses provided to residents included psychological support and practical tools for dealing with emergency situations, clinical treatments, and emotional support through a hotline established specifically for the purpose of the fight, led by the clinical team.

The center also provided broad regional responses to all local authorities in the area, alongside customized local responses - training, workshops, content productions, and customized responses for professional teams and for the community and residents, with the aim of providing skills and tools that build resilience.

While the initiative is good, I wonder why Indian media is highlighting Israeli welfare programs when we have so many mental health crises in our own country that need attention.

Mental health support during wartime is crucial. India should learn from this model for our border areas that face frequent tensions. Jai Hind!

The hotline service is a brilliant idea! We need similar emergency psychological support systems in India, especially for women and children in conflict zones.

Interesting to see how Israel is integrating its Arab population into welfare systems. Hope our government takes note for better minority welfare schemes.

The article seems one-sided. No mention of Palestinian suffering during the same conflict. Media should present balanced perspectives.
