HaBayit Bagiva programme

HaBayit BaGiva – The Home on the Hill, a unique programme, is located in the heart of Zoharim Youth Village. It is more than a treatment centre – it’s a lifeline. Built for ultra-Orthodox teens battling addiction, it offers a safe, structured haven where healing begins and hope is restored. Many of these boys have faced trauma, rejection, and life on the streets. Here, they’re given more than support; they have a second chance at life.

Every donation you make directly fuels this transformative work – helping us to restore broken lives, rebuild shattered hope, and reunite teens with the families and communities that love them. 

Together, we can ensure that no teen is left to struggle in silence and that each has a fighting chance to reclaim their future.

Together, we can turn pain into purpose and make sure no teen is left behind

At the HaBayit BaGiva programme, healing begins when a teen walks through the door. Our programme is designed to break the cycle of substance abuse and rebuild shattered lives – emotionally, socially, and spiritually.

With a professional team, small therapeutic groups, and a holistic approach, each teen receives a customised treatment plan tailored to their unique story and needs. We focus on more than just the addiction. We look at the root causes – pain, loss, and disconnection- and provide tools to cope, rebuild, and reconnect.

What makes the HaBayit BaGiva programme Different?

  • Separate Healing Space: Located away from the dormitories and classrooms, the centre offers a private environment for intensive therapeutic work.
  • Individual + Group Therapy: Teens receive one-on-one counselling alongside group sessions that build trust, community, and emotional resilience.
  • Holistic Approach: We work with the teen, their family, and their environment. Healing doesn’t happen in a vacuum – it happens together.
  • Prevention + Intervention: We stop the spiral before it’s too late – preventing legal troubles, school dropouts, and in some cases, saving lives.
  • Reintegration: Our goal is to return each teen to a normative, healthy life – one that is empowered, connected, and drug-free. Unable to find 

Help Us Light the Way Back

Every teenager at HaBayit BaGiva is fighting a battle that most of us can scarcely imagine: a daily struggle against trauma, addiction, and the deep sense of isolation that often accompanies them. But thanks to the compassion and generosity of supporters like you, they don’t have to face these challenges alone. Your support enables us to provide more than just temporary relief; it offers life-saving therapeutic interventions, a safe and nurturing environment where healing can begin, and a genuine opportunity for these young people to envision a future filled with purpose, connection, and hope.
