SESOBEL is unique in the way it approaches the challenges of disabilities. It not only provides children with special education, medical care, rehabilitation and access to protected workshops, but it complements these services with an ongoing coordination between their families and our competent multi-disciplinary team. This comprehensive approach contributes to the well-being of the child.
SESOBEL believes that each child’s case is unique and is entitled to an individualized program designed by our specialized teams in order to allow the child to reach their potential.
SESOBEL’s global approach is the based on the belief that whole family plays an integral part in the child’s therapy. Developmental progress is monitored, and support to the families is continued until the child returns back home.
