💪🏻🇮🇱♿ JEWISH PRIDE MEETS DISABILITY

💪🏻🇮🇱♿ JEWISH PRIDE MEETS DISABILITY EMPOWERMENT: In Paris, Israeli Paralympic swimmer Ami Dadoan won a gold medal in the 200 meter freestyle, his second gold and Israel's fourth of the 2024 Paralympic Games. 🥇🥇🥇🥇 After receiving his medal, Ami shouted 'Hatikva,' Israel's national anthem, emphatically from the podium - singing it just wasn't enough. Ami is proof positive that our Jewish pride lifts us up, and that disability can't hold us down. Don't let anyone tell you what you can't do or who you shouldn't be. Shout it loud and proud: AM YISRAEL CHAI! 💪🏻🇮🇱♿

🫂❤️ WRAPPED IN LOVE: Though ADI's professional staff and volunteers have the honor and privilege of serving as the "extended family" who help our residents reach their greatest potentials, the residents' parents remain very active in their lives and visit regularly. The angelic human pictured here is the father of a resident in ADI Negev-Nahalat Eran's High Dependency Unit. He visits *every morning* to wrap his son in tallit and tefillin (a prayer shawl and phylacteries) so they can pray together. While he can't be with his son at all times, he makes sure to start each day with the transmission of deep love and core values. This unwavering dedication reminds us of our responsibilities to the residents and their families. In addition to providing countless opportunities for empowerment and advancement, we are always striving to reach that parental level of devotion by doing everything possible to wrap the residents in love.

🩺❤️ ROBIN'S REMARKABLE RETURN: In February,

🩺❤️ ROBIN'S REMARKABLE RETURN: In February, Dr. Robin (Rivky) Akselrud, an Occupational Therapist and Program Director at Hofstra University School of Health in New York, put her busy life on hold to volunteer together with three of her OT students at ADI Jerusalem. She so enjoyed the experience, that she vowed to return to Israel to assist the ADI family in the months ahead. When she heard that the Kaylie Rehabilitation Medical Center at ADI Negev-Nahalat Eran was in need of OTs to help heal the war-wounded civilian and military heroes of the Negev, she dropped everything (again) and made her way to southern Israel for a second round of volunteering. For two weeks in August, Robin spent her days working with a roster of grateful patients and her nights marveling at the beauty and scope of the rehabilitation village.

"As an OT and a professor, I find great joy and purpose in my work, and volunteering at ADI Negev took those emotions to the next level," said Robin, when reflecting on her whirlwind volunteering adventure. "I was mesmerized and inspired by my patients' stories of pain, resilience and recovery, and helping them restore function was a life-changing experience. It was so gratifying to see that I was directly impacting their lives with every sessions."

"I was also blown away by the professional staff and the facilities at ADI Negev-Nahalat Eran - it is unlike anything I have ever seen before. It's 'the village that never sleeps,' and it's filled with people whose singular focus is empowering others. I witnessed OTs treating their patients like members of their own families, and I felt an aura of love and camaraderie in every corner of this extraordinary community. It's a wonder to behold, and I can't wait to return!"

Thank you for your passion, professionalism and wonderful partnership, Robin! We look forward to welcoming you back again soon! 🙏🏻

🪚 🇮🇱 REBUILDING TOGETHER: 🛠️❤️ E

🪚 🇮🇱 REBUILDING TOGETHER: 🛠️❤️ Earlier this summer, the administrators, educators and medical professionals at ADI Jerusalem organized a meaningful team-building day with the goal of buoying the spirits of their fellow Israelis. The activity: constructing a picnic table from scratch to beautify the reestablished community of Kibbutz Beeri. Working together, the ADI staff sawed, sanded, hammered and sealed their wonderful wooden creation, and even took the time to affix a sign with words of blessing and encouragement. Last week, the picnic table finally made it's way from Jerusalem to Be'eri, where it is already being put to good use by the very appreciative Kibbutz residents. For nearly 11 months, our national slogan has been 'Together, we shall prevail,' and it remains the gospel truth. We shall overcome, but only when we stand together as one. AM YISRAEL CHAI! 💪🏻🇮🇱

💪🏻💚 THE ADI DIFFERENCE: Adaptive technology gets you rolling, but the time and attention invested in your recovery is what propels you forward. At the Kaylie Rehabilitation Medical Center at ADI Negev-Nahalat Eran, our professional staff care about your rehabilitation as much as you do. That's the ADI difference. 💪🏻💚
