Israel Pre-Military Training
Israeli youths participating in 'Aharai! Youth Program' carry sand bags on a stretcher to simulate carrying a wounded soldier, as they complete the program's final stage, an overnight stretcher march to Mount Herzl in Jerusalem, Israel, on June 28, 2013, where they took part in a ceremony marking 15 years since the foundation of the Aharai! Youth Program. 'Aharai!' is a social educational organization that develops young leadership and promotes social involvement among youths from underprivileged communities, including boarding schools, immigrant and absorption centers, welfare services, boarding schools, shelters and criminal rehabilitation programs, by connecting the youths to milestones in Israeli society: preparation for a significant military service in the IDF, preparation for the matriculation exams, immigrant integration programs, youth challenge programs, one year of community service, pre-military academy and alumni organization. The organization provides its youths a sense of achievement and capability and encourages them to fit in as contributing citizens in the State of Israel.
