Teenagers Educated The Village Way

Poignant stories of children who were born into precarious existences but who received a second chance at leading a wholesome and successful life. This book will inspire readers from the very first pages to view adolescence as a unique opportunity to instill the richness of cultural identity into young minds and empower them to follow their dreams. Author and visionary educator Chaim Peri shares his own childhood experiences in orphanages as lying at the very root of his life's work. This book is filled with stories of the children of Yemin Orde Youth Village in Israel. It is a brilliant testament to the power of creating communities of meaning.
