What if you have no home?
In over 50 years of Girls Town Jerusalem, indeed, in the past 70+ years since the original Bayith Lepletot Home was founded, NEVER has such a situation impacted the children of our Homes like CONVID – 19 Pandemic. In the past, we’ve gone into shelters and into sealed rooms. In the past, we’ve tightened our belts and donned gas masks. Through wars and intifadah and rationing and radio-active threats, we’ve met the challenges as they have arisen.
ONCE AGAIN, BL – Girls Town Jerusalem is going beyond anything they have EVER been called upon to do to keep the children safe, secure and sheltered.
In keeping with the directives of the Ministry of Health, the Homes could not continue to hold classes in our educational facility. Nor would we be allowed to have the girls reside in the dormitory. Therefore, on a case-by-case basis, EACH and EVERY girl has either been placed with a family at TREMENDOUS cost; placed in limited number groups with mature counselors; taken into the homes of the housemothers or dormitory supervisor and staff or, where possible, returned to their families.
All of these options have entailed incredible amounts of financial outlays, which will somehow have to be made. Right now, herculean efforts have been made to ensure that each child will be in an environment that will make it possible to follow the guidelines of the Ministry of Health and in no way jeopardize the health and well-being of our children or anyone else.
