“JAT made a significant and extremely valuable contribution to our summer camps. Coming with their wealth of experience and resources they were able to facilitate much needed but often neglected conversations with young people that were beneficial for both them and also a great example to our madrichim in how to run activities that will contribute in important ways to the knowledge and safety of our young people.”

“JAT training has had a positive impact on the way we approach young people. They have given our madrichim the support and confidence when talking to our chanichim about sex and sexual health.”

“A very good workshop - it helped the pupils think/discuss true to life daily situations. They aren’t alone and I think that the message was clearly put across.
Well done JAT.”
Mrs Hayley Simon, Yavneh College
“JAT did a great job at working with our madrichim (leaders) pre-camp this summer, training them in issues to do with child development and sexual awareness as well as running sessions with our fourteen and fifteen year olds year olds on camp about sexual health and relationship issues. I was particularly encouraged by the thought put into all of the programmes run on Kadimah through the consultation with the movement before the camp, which allowed for the programmes to reflect LJY-Netzer’s policies. JAT sessions allowed for an open, safe and comfortable forum to discuss openly issues that are often considered taboo.”

“All the feedback from our madrichim and chanichim was positive…we look forward to working with JAT again”
