About the Program
Givolim provides premier neighborhood-based residences for children and young adults ages 9 to 21 navigating intellectual disabilities and autism. Our core philosophy is built upon the foundational premise that every child deserves to grow up within a genuine home environment offering safety, stability, and an unequivocal sense of belonging. The program provides a deeply supportive residential framework tailored to the specific needs of each child, harmonizing classic family life with elite clinical care.
The hallmark of the Givolim model is the continuous presence of a dedicated, full-time married couple who serve as House Parents. Serving as emotional anchors and loving parental figures, the House Parents direct the home’s daily schedule while cultivating an authentic family atmosphere grounded in Torah values. The warm atmosphere of stability and affection builds secure foundations in the heart of each child, empowering him to thrive emotionally, personally, and socially.
Our family-style homes are backed by an expert multidisciplinary clinical team which creates personalized advancement plans for each child, delivers consistent developmental therapies, and is in touch with the residents’ schools and families. This steady collaboration guarantees an educational and clinical continuum that embraces the children 24 hours a day, empowering them to maximize their potential.
