The goal of this blog is to pressure the Israeli Government to increase funding for the care of the retarded, for the services. The minimum wage attracts weak, unqualified workers for a very difficult job. Salaries must be raised and workers' conditions must improve.
That will be better for the retarded, especially the institutionalized in residential establishments.
For example, in Elwyn, Jerusalem, there is one night shift worker for four wards. Beautiful buildings aren't enough.
Giving the best care and rehabilitation for the severely retarded is a mission, not the job for those barely capable of simple custodial care.
