New Yachad Program This Summer

A new Yachad program is set to begin this summer!  Yachad will be partnering with the hottest day camp around, Moshava Ba’ir, to provide vocational placement for adults who have special needs.  This program was started to help those who have some special needs, and are capable and willing workers, to find a summer job. Workers will be placed in positions suited to their abilities with the support of a job coach. They will learn important vocational and social skills.

The program begins on June 25 and goes through August 17.  Participants can work for four weeks or for the full eight weeks of the camp season.  Transportation will be provided from locations in Englewood, Teaneck, Riverdale, Upper West Side and can be arranged for other areas.  For more information, see the flyer or contact Nechama Braun at braunn@ou.org.
