Preventive 2005/2006

Direction and Advice
The workshops address the changes in the life of adolescents and raises awareness in families of various problems that can arise.
Since Junuary 2006 karama has run Teenage Stage Workshops. It is a workshop that is held by psychologist Sharly Zidan. This workshop helps the teenagers and adults to meet twice a month to be able to discuss the many changes and the possible effects that affect them mentally, socially and emotionally during this period of their life. After having had discussions about various topics concerning them, they will be divided into small groups. Each group will discuss the issues that were most urgent in that specific group. Then each person, individually, writes about thoughts and issues they feel need to be dealt with or discussed more. This gives each person the opportunity to reflect on a deeper level of how they function and how to express their feelings in words. Again, the aim is to work with communication and build understanding and respect for the feelings and integrity of the adolescent as well as adults.
