WHAT IS P'TACH?

Parents for Torah for All Children.
"P'TACH," is a national non-profit
organization which provides secular and
Jewish education for children with learning
disabilities who are enrolled in our schools.
Before P'TACH existed, the doors of
almost all day schools were indeed closed
to children with all levels of learning
disabilities, and the parents of these special
children were often frustrated by a
community that failed to recognize the need
for providing special educational programs
in our schools. Now, through P'TACH, the
doors of our schools are "OPEN" to all
our children.

Maple-Drake

"Center for Jewish Creativi-

discussions with Dr. N. Paul
Silverman of major pro-
totypes in Hollywood: From
the stern "patriarch" to the
"Holocaust survivor," to
"assimilation," how the
Jewish mother has been por-
trayed in films from "long suf-
fering" to the "shrew," what
happened to the Jews in the
20s and the 30s as
demonstrated in film.
These topics will be review-
ed with Dr. Silverman after
viewing the films: Jazz

Singer, Seize the Day, Pawn-
broker The Heartbreak Kid,

years. There is a fee.

The Michigan branch, P'TACH of
Michigan, Inc., was founded in May of
1979 by a group of parents, lay people and
professionals in fields related to special
education. Our main objective is to provide
special education for learning disabled
children with the goal of mainstreaming
them into regular classrooms whenever
possible. Today, P'TACH has grown to
serve over twenty children in its two
programs. Unfortunately, due to a lack of
financial resources, children are currently
on a waiting list to enter P'TACH's
programs.
