tional training to work outside
the home?
r.
Today, 130 men and
women with a variety of emo-__,
tional and psychological prob= —\
lems have found a place at
Chazon Fetaya (Fetaya's
Vision), a pioneer occupational
rehabilitation center based in
Jerusalem.
Founded 20 years ago, the
three-branch enterprise was the 1
brainchild of Shaul Fetaya
whose own child suffered
extended severe depression. In
1975, when the conventional
wisdom shared by the medical
establishment and the Health
Ministry was that mental
patients were best left in hospi-
tals, Mr. Fetaya understood the
simple, therapeutic, restorative
power of giving someone a
job. A decade later, the Health
Ministry seized upon the idea
and set up a countrywide net-
work of rehabilitation centers
modeled on Chazon Fetaya.
Young, middle-aged and
elderly, observant and secular, (--\
native-born and new olim,
men and women from
Jerusalem, Beni Brak and
Haifa, as well as several smaller
settlements, all work intently
and unselfconsciously at the
well-equipped work stations.
Some tasks are more sophisti-
cated than others in the facto- )
ry's departments, which
include computers, desktop
publishing, bookbinding,
dressmaking, carpentry, sign
making, hairdressing and label---\
production. Workers are paid
between 4 and 9 shekels an
hour ($1.35-$3) based solely
on their work performance.
There are no psychiatrists or -\
social workers on the premises.
Instead, the staff works closely
with the health care profes-
sionals who referred the
employees.
Israel's mental health estab-
lishment is now reconsidering
the importance of a steady job.
Labor knows that once the
paternal and profligate boss
(the government) is replaced
by private owners, the atmos-
phere will change. In the
struggle that follows, inflated
staff will be dispensed with;
subjects like efficiency and
costs will be required.
