"Darcheinu has been a pioneering platform for our talmidim to open up and share the different challenges they face on a day-to-day basis, whether it be at school or at home. It has been a stepping stone for many, in expressing their emotions when faced with adversity. Having been positively impacted by the program, the talmidim keep asking for more time to be allotted for the program! Darcheinu truly paves the way for our youth to acquire social skills that any Ben Torah would deem vital for their overall growth and happiness."

It is a privilege to work with their team and the curriculum lends itself to rich discussions and workshops, with topics so critical in our return to school this year. Looking forward to continued collaboration."
