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.

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.

Syrians Ignore
French Demands
Paris (JTA) — French For-
eign Minister Roland Dumas
apparently got nowhere
when he raised two issues of
Jewish concern with the for-
eign minister of Syria last
week during a visit to
Damascus.
The Syrians denied, as
they have in the past, any
knowledge of the
whereabouts of Nazi war
criminal Alois Brunner, who
found haven in Syria more
than 35 years ago.
With respect to the
mistreatment of Syria's Jew-
ish community an.d,
specifically, the continued
imprisonment of two Jewish
brothers, Syrian Foreign
Minister Farouk al-Sharaa
reportedly "took notice" of
Dumas' complaints.
