Emergency help lines for children & teens in crisis in Israel.
Teenagers can experience crises and adolescence is a difficult time. Well-meaning parents may feel confused and frustrated. They may disagree and argue about what should be done to help their child. It can take ages to get an appointment with a mental health professional via Kupat Holim and going privately can be prohibitively expensive. It might be necessary to get help via a crisis line. Exam and ‘bagrut’ pressures, identity crises, drugs and abuse are just some of the issues that our children and teens sometimes have to deal with. We’ve put together a list of crisis and help lines that can help you and your child through a difficult time.
- Israel’s emergency services
- How to call the emergency services; Hebrew, English & transliteration
- Bagrut, SATS, GED
- Co-parenting after divorce
