AY NEWS Immigrants and Disadvantaged Aided by Youth Aliya JERUSALEM — "It's good to be among Jews," Abraham declared. "We want to be good soldier,s, good citizens and sports champions. Israel will be proud of us." Abraham is one of 35 Ethiopian Jewish youngsters who spent last summer in "camp" at Tal- piot Hadera Youth Aliya Village. Like the others in the group, he'd arrived in Israel two years before, and spoke fluent Hebrew. Recal- ling his arrival, he said, "It was like a dream. We clap- ped our hands and we sang. The older ones ki\ssed the soil of Eretz Israel. Israeli authorities were waiting for us, they invited us to eat and provided us with ac- commodations." What were the first real difficulties?

Special Youth Aliya committees raised about $5 million toward the total. The Jewish Agency con- tributes between 60-100 percent of the actual cost' of maintenance of youngsters in Youth Aliya, according to the type of institution, and whether or not it is owned by the Agency. In those facilities where Youth Aliya students make up at least 40 percent of the popu- lation, the Agency also con- tributes to the costs for re- novations and repairs, in addition to food and clo- thing expenses, celebra- tions (Bar Mitzva, etc.) and other expenses.. ■ 3 nights accommodation in so sm10 4, 44 AIR—HOTEL—CAR RENTAL terribly frightened. Youth Aliya helps them regain a sense of security and of self-esteem, bridg- ing the gap between them and other children. As Israel's social prob- lems changed over the years, Youth Aliya adapted its programs to meet the new challenges. Its basic strategy has, nonethelesi, remained consistent: caring for children mainly in resi- dential institutions, youth villages, and kibutzim. In 1982,1close to 18,000 young people, mostly in the 12-18 age group, were cared for in 34 youth villages and boarding schools, 109 yeshivas (the largest group in Youth Aliya), over 300 kibutzim, a number of moshavim and 20 full-day centers. Students unable to cope with the usual educa- tional framework are cared for in six residential educa- tional 'institutions. Youth Aliya's activities and ; facilities are funded from various sources.
