Special to The Jewish News
them. Outside a
downtown Jerusalem
pizza shop or movie theater,
they look like everyone else.
But for dozens of young
emotionally disturbed
Americans and Israelis,
looking like everyone else is
the greatest measure of
success at overcoming their
illness.
The result is a triumph of
Israel's Summit Institute,
Ltd., and Israel itself.
The Jerusalem-based
center for the treatment of
the emotionally troubled
uses Israel as an ally in help-
ing people ages 17 to 32 re-
cover from emotional illness.
Israel's realities, emotions
and challenges are what
Summit's charges from the
United States and Israel
learn to cope with — while at
the same time drawing
strength from them.
Summit's founders and
first patients learned about
Israeli reality quickly.
Hershel Stiskin had come
to Israel is 1972 to establish
a learning disabilities after-
school center for children
based on his experience in
founding Summit Institute
in the United States.
Throughout Israel, he en-
countered emotionally
disturbed youth from the
United States in need of a
therapeutic framework. In
September of 1973, Summit
Institute in Israel opened its
doors — on the Golan
Heights.
A month later, Summit
was evacuated as Syrian
guns opened fire. Stiskin —
aided by Dr. Stanley
Schneider, Summit's exec-
utive director — reopened
the facility in Jerusalem.
The intention was to create
"a residential treatment
facility here in Israel, where
we felt that society was more
accepting of deviance and
difficulties, especially if you
were a foreigner," Stiskin
says. "We provided an op-
portunity for kids to come
here and get themselves
together for a year or two or
three."
Summit initially focused
on patients from the United
States and other nations.
Then it received Israeli
government funding and

licensing and began accep-
ting Israeli youngsters for
rehabilitation — teaching
them how to function in the
marketplace. Today only 15
to 25 percent of Summit's
patients are English
speakers, mainly from the
United States, Canada and
Australia.
But Summit isn't for
everyone. Schneider makes
no claims that it's a cure-all,
either.
Patients for the
"American unit" have case
histories screened by
Summit's staff in New
York City. An additional
telephone interview might
be conducted with the Israeli
staff. Most of the patients
are referred by health pro-
fessionals.
"We're not ambulance
chasers," Schneider says.
"We try to evaluate what's
best for them. Because
"We try to evaluate
what's best for
them. Because
ultimately, if the
kid comes here and
feels it's not for
him, he's going to
leave."
Dr. Stanley
Schneider
ultimately, if the kid comes
here and feels it's not for
him, he's going to leave. And
his leaving is going to be
disruptive to the unit."
Parents are regularly in-
formed of their child's pro-
gress in letters that are also
made available to the child.
Annual visits by parents are
encouraged. But such
meetings are monitored to
"keep them from getting out
of hand," as a Summit staff
member puts it.
Parents are required to
leave a return ticket home
for their child with the
Jerusalem office. Patients'
passports are also held by
the office. A patient's re-
quest to leave is discussed
with the patient and the
parents. If patients are
violent or break the rules,
they are returned home at
Summit's discretion.
Schneider says that
Summit services "anybody
who has got an emotional
problem and who can utilize
a treatment facility that's an
intensive facility — that's
not a hospital, and yet not
