A place to heal.A community to grow.A future to build.
In Yerushalayim, Lev Eliyahu surrounds Jewish young adults with belonging, warm relationships and real opportunity to build independent, meaningful lives.
Our programs
Many ways in.One community around each person.
Supportive homes, evening drop-in centers, chesed, retreats and new initiatives — each one a place to belong and grow.
Growth holds when a whole life is held together.
Lev Eliyahu offers the steady, lasting presence that turns a good beginning into an independent life — for as long as it is needed.

Voices from Lev Eliyahu
In their words
Every girl is truly cared for. From our classes to weekly one-on-one sessions that help guide us in life and move forward. The staff truly believe in us and never give up on us, even when we doubt ourselves. They help us grow, heal, and discover our potential.

This program gave me a safe place to grow, without judgment or doubt. I was supported as I figured out who I am and what I want, while being trusted to make my own decisions. Along the way, I found lifelong friends and mentors who genuinely care. — Miriam N., The Lighthouse
The house is a place where I can come home to every night, with supportive staff and classes, where we take responsibility for ourselves. We get to live together in an environment where everyone is looking to grow and be the best version of themselves. It's a place I can call home. — Shaindy K., The Lighthouse
