Bayit Cham is a registered non-profit organization offering
rehabilitation, support and guidance for mentally ill people.
The main focus of its activities is to rehabilitate these people
by placing them in the mainstream working environment.

The organization was founded in 1997 by two individuals
who have vast experience in the field of rehabilitation -
Shmuel Munk and his partner Yoram Mordechai.

The Mental Health Law and the Rehabilitation in the
community of People with mental llness provide the
legal framework for the organization.
Most of the "Amuta" members are mental health
professionals.

(Mentally ill adults-aged 18 and over as well registered as
disabled people of the Ministry of Defense are looked after
by the organization). Bayit Cham is a major force in the
rehabilitation of mentally ill people. it is the foremost
organization in their inclusion in the workplace as well as
running sheltered workshops and prevocational training.

We firmly believe that the mentally ill are entitled to equal
rights in all spheres of life and that their special needs
should be adequately provided to enable them to live a
life of independence, privacy and respect whilst fulfilling
their own potential.

The secret of its success is in Bayit Cham's motto:
"To accept every person as he is, to understand and
empathize with his distress and to do our utmost to help -
just like we would expect others to do for us."
