TL;DR

A new Maariv report details that children from the Perach Yisrael network also took part in the sensory overload simulation stations. They expressed their feelings and helped staff understand how different stimuli affect them. Network CEO Rabbi Moshe Stein said the shared experience "changes how the child is perceived and refines the therapeutic approach and sensitivity toward him."

01 · THE DISPATCH

The Perach Yisrael educational network has expanded its sensory overload training program to include children as active participants, according to a Maariv report published Monday evening. The training, originally reported by The Zioneer as involving staff alone, now includes children who experience the simulation stations together with educators. Participants wore thick gloves, worked under loud noises and flashing lights, and shared their emotional responses with the teams. Network CEO Rabbi Moshe Stein said the shared experience helps staff better understand the daily challenges faced by children with sensory sensitivities. The program, part of a broader initiative to improve special-education methodology, aims to sharpen therapeutic sensitivity and educational response. No further details on the program's expansion or future plans were reported.
