Nava Barak Talks About the State of At-Risk Youth – Channel 13

"Anxiety and loneliness lead to extreme situations. The distress among young people related to suicide and self-harm is deeply troubling. We need to open our eyes and see our children. Anyone who meets young people day to day must first and foremost see them. We do this in the field and we don't give up on anyone. This is the order of the hour - not to give up on them." This is what Nava Barak, president of ELEM, said earlier today in an interview with Channel 13. "The situation in Israel and around the world is affecting our donors, and recently there has been a decline in donations in the social sector. That's why we've now launched a mass fundraising campaign for young people. We have all become ambassadors."
