suicide
arget of UAHC
Miami Beach (JTA) — The
nion of American Hebrew Con-
regations (UAHC) has adopted a
'.Itionwide program to stem the
epidemic" of suicide among
eenagers who have "fallen
rough the Jewish safety net of
tinily and synagogue."
The program, believed to be the
lrst attempt by any national reli-
ious organization to deal with
aicide among young people, was
'pproved by the UAHC's board of
•ustees this week after hearing a
eport by UAHC President Rabbi
4exander Schindler confirming a
igh rate of suicide among Jewish
onagers.
The Board, holding its semi-
finual meeting in Miami Beach,
uthorized the establishment
Within the UAHC's 770 Reform
r gregations — with a metnber-
hip of 1.25 million — a new insti-
r ite to be called "Yad Tikvah"
- land of Hope) which will serve
7, a training, research and educa-
on center for Reform Jewish ac-
ivities to deal with teen-age
uicide.
;--3chindler's report noted that
very day, 18 young Aniericans
themselves, a 300 percent in-
rease over the past 20 years.
In response to Schindler's re-
o
l rt, the UAHC trustees estab-
shed
. . a task force on teen-age
uicide to train rabbis and
,e.achers in Reform congregations
to recognize the warning signals
-Chis sickness," to develop edu-
ational materials for a suicide
'revention program and to devise
some means for crisis interven-
:On on a national, regional and
erhaps even congregational
evel."

'ioldier missing
Jerusalem (JTA) — A massive
;earth for a young woman soldier
vas extended from the Haifa Bay
y- F!a to all of northern Israel Mon-
lay, so far without finding a trace
f 20--year-old Hadass Kedmi of
ibbutz Kfar Masaryk who has
een missing since last week.
The kibbutz, located on Haifa
Say, has offered a 1 million shekel
($2,000) reward for any informa-
pit,n as to her whereabouts. Kib-
)utz members and local Arab vil-
.agers have volunteered to beef-
ip police and military search par-
authorities fear she may
es.
i nave been the victim of terrorists.
Kedmi and another young woman
soldier were hitchhiking from
their army base near Tel Aviv to
their homes in the Haifa area last
I „Veek. Kedmi was last seen when
the left the car at the outskirts of
t=laifa to Pick up another ride in
the direction of Kfar Masaryk.
The army has repeatedly
,varned women soldiers not to
Hitchhike in civilian cars after
dark. But recent orders requiring
all service personnel to work an
xtra hour at military camps and
cases, an economy measure, has
made it difficult for women
'soldiers to avoid seeking riders
`-:ter dark.
The army now plans to issue
women soldiers with small tear
'gas cannisters as a weapon to
",ght off assault.
