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 MILE ANO MIDOLEBELT . • ": ':::" . ....t?" -..÷: ARYEH DEAN COHEN Register by July 31. Details in store. .

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
