Carrie Bornstein, a parent of three children with mental illness, shares her experiences of facing difficulty finding a proper fit for her kids within the Jewish day school system, each of them being recently turned away from Jewish educational environments (camps and day schools). Stephanie Ives, Head of School at Beit Rabban Day School, shares her perspective and how she is working to make sure her school is a strong environment for children with mental illness. The discussion is moderated by our Executive Director Noam Stein, who is also the High School Principal at Farber Hebrew Day School.
