At Negba, we emphasize a holistic, long-term process, while providing tools and values that will accompany children even into adulthood and lead them to move forward to maximize their abilities.
Work in the Teen Club is an important part of the youngsters’ personal development and influences them in a multidisciplinary way on the social, emotional, academic level and the desire for achievement.
Omer, a 14-year-old teenager, comes from a complex background and has joined Negba since the 4th grade. Since the beginning, Omer has really enjoyed “coming to Negba” after school, he comes regularly and is very involved in the different activities. The educational team worked with him in a personal way adapted to his difficulties for good social integration.
Recently, after Omer helped his friend from the Teen Club prepare his program as a candidate to membership in the Municipal Youth Council, Omer turned to the team of the association with the desire to also present himself and be elected there! (Note: this is a democratic and apolitical council representing the city’s youth in all their nuances, and working to promote their interests in all areas.) After writing an article with the support of the team, we were able to see Omer speak at the town hall. He did so well that he was elected to the Council!
Where is Omer’s next destination? The presidency of the Municipal Youth Council! We are convinced that Omer will not stop there. He will be able to reach any goal he sets for himself! We are by his side to provide him with all the support he may need.
And that’s just the beginning…
