IN SUPPORTING THE COMMUNITY CENTERS THROUGH GRANTS, MANY PROGRAMS FOR YOUTH WERE SUPPORTED. MORE THAN 1000 ISRAELI YOUTH AT RISK WERE SERVED THROUGH PROGRAMS AIMED AT IMPROVING THEIR SELF-ESTEEM. BY IMPROVING THEIR COMMUNICATION ABILITIES AND WORKING THROUGH THEIR LEARNING DISABILITIES AND THUS EMPOWERING THEM TO SUCCEED BY TEACHING THEM THESE SKILLS. SOME GRANTS ALSO INCLUDED TRAINING FOR YOUTH COUNSELORS OF THESE AT-RISK YOUTH. THE COMMUNITY CENTERS ALSO USE THESE FUNDS TO SUPPORT BEDOUIN COLLEGE STUDENTS.
