"HaBait shel Ronit" (“Ronit’s Place”) (R.A.) is an association working to advance rehabilitation and improvement in the lives of high-functioning people with disabilities.
The association offers a variety of services: a social center for personal and social development; support of placement and independent employment; alternative independent living in the community; coaching and personal tutoring for people with special needs and support and guidance for their families.
Our members are high-functioning people with autism, neurodevelopmental disabilities, various syndromes, mental conditions and people who can be assisted by social and personal rehabilitation for any reason whatsoever.
Families find a space in the center for personal development, learning and social growth, that also provides systemic support towards a happier and healthier life for families and their children.
Social life and community belonging are the most significant aspects of human development and personal well-being. For people with special needs, facilitation, guidance, and structured social opportunities are required throughout life to socially engage with each other and the neurotypical community. To that end, the association established a matrix of services based on a unique work method, the only one of its kind in Israel.
The method is founded on an integrative-holistic approach that addresses all aspects of human living: personal – mental, emotional, physical and spiritual; inter-personal – relationships and communication with others; and social – connection with the larger human fabric and becoming part of a group, society and the wide world.
Integrating all these aspects provide a foundation for supporting processes of change and rehabilitation in the lives of special people.
