Bar/Bat Mitzvah for
the Special Child | Operation Mazal Tov |
Netaim | MAAYAN
Introduced in 2003, Maayan is an exciting new program that allows young adults
with special needs to work as staff members at the Ramah-NOAM Summer Camp. The
program is a natural extension of the Netaim camp, at which graduates of the Bar/Bat
Mitzvah for the Special Child program enjoy two weeks of fun and educational activities,
alongside the Ramah-NOAM camp. Just as Ramah-NOAM campers go on to become staff
members, so too do Netaim campers.
This first year, three youngsters worked on the program, helping out at the medical
clinic, in the kitchen and with the Camp Rabbi. The three “workers” were viewed
as integral members of staff by both the rest of the staff and the campers.
This is yet another program in which Masorti youth are involved in Tikun Olam
(social action), as a natural part of their day.
