About Aishel.org
Empowering Young Women
Founded in 2004 and run by a dedicated team of professionals under the auspices of rabbis, Aishel offers girls ages 14-22 a safe, clean place to sleep, three nourishing meals a day and other basic items, psychological counseling, and help to receive vocational training. The girls are helped to confront the issues that led to their present situation, and are gently and lovingly aided to turn their lives around, become productive members of society, reconcile with their families and return to religious observance.
The period of residence in the home varies from several days to several months. Because leaving too early can undo all the good accomplished during their stay, we try to err on the side of caution and keep the girls until we are confident that they can reintegrate into mainstream society and succeed as well balanced adults. To date, we have helped hundreds of girls turn their lives around.
Most girls arrive unannounced after hearing about Aishel by word of mouth or via referral by professional organizations. They are welcomed by the house mother and told what the home will offer them and what we demand in return. Their responsibilities include observing a curfew, honoring our strict policy of no drugs or alcohol and no contact with boys in the home, and contributing to the home's maintenance.
If they agree to commit to the program, they are welcome to join the Aishel family. After a short acclimation period, an individually structured plan is drawn up for each girl with the assistance of the staff.
