Kibbutz Harduf
Inspired by the Anthroposophic holistic philosophy of
Rudolph Steiner, Kibbutz Harduf was established in
the lower Galilee in 1982 to create an environment for
initiatives in the fields of education, special education,
ecology and organic agriculture and complementary medicine.
It aspires to cultivate a community life where people with
special needs can integrate among the kibbutz members.

and a special education track for 500 students from the Galilee
area.



· The Tuvia Community provides therapeutic and residential services for 60 at-risk children and youth with special needs
who have been removed from their abusive homes.
