At the event, Ilene Techner, who helps
provide hippo therapy for children in
the 4H Variety Handicapped Children's
Riding Program, was presented with a
special thank you from a young girl with
cerebral palsy, with whom she rides.
Ilene Techner is also the founder and
director of AfterCare Services at the Ira
Kaufman Chapel, and founder of the
Bereavement Coalition of Metropolitan
Detroit, coordinating bereavement sup-
port between various synagogues. She
also holds her residential builder's license
and serves as president and CEO of
ITEC Enterprises, specializing in home
additions and renovations.
The Techners, whose children are Ari,
22, Chad, 20, and Stephanie, 15, estab-
lished the Alicia Joy Techner Memorial
Parenting Conference for improvement
of parenting skills and family life in
memory of their first child, who died of
meningitis at age eight months.
David and Ilene Techner were able to
tour Alyn Hospital while in Israel on the
Jewish Federation of Metropolitan
Detroit's Partnership 2000 Mission, tak-
ing advantage of tour arrangements pro-
vided to travelers by Detroit Friends of
Alyn.
"The children there knew they were in
a very special place," David Techner
says. "It is a place where they can feel
loved and appreciated and as whole as
possible under physical constraints." 11
