Gabe* is a young man who suffers from a debilitating anxiety disorder. For years, he has avoided all social contact, cutting himself off from society.

When he first came to Ezer Mizion's Rehabilitative Employment Center, Gabe refused to sit in the same room as the other people working at the Center. At first, the directors of the Center gave Gabe his own room to work in. Later, however, they moved another person into the room with him. Gabe slowly got used to being around the people at the Center until he was finally comfortable working in the same room as everyone else.

Gabe has not fully recovered, but with the help of the Ezer Mizion Rehabilitative Employment Center, he has learned to interact normally with others. For Gabe, this is a remarkable breakthrough.

Shoshi* was a student at a very prestigious institution. When she was 17 years old, she suffered a psychotic attack, which was treated by medication. After the attack, however, she was unable to return to school. Shoshi's parents asked Ezer Mizion's Women's Rehabilitative Employment Center to take her in. Ezer Mizion's Mental Health Rehabilitation Department works only with people over 18, so Shoshi was technically unsuited to the Center. However, Shoshi's parents begged Ezer Mizion to accept her, as she had no other place to go.

After half a year at the Center, Shoshi had rehabilitated to the point where she could return to school and resume normal living.

Recently, Shoshi's mother called Ezer Mizion to share the good news: Shoshi was engaged to be married! Ezer Mizion is delighted for Shoshi, and confident that she now has the skills to build a happy, healthy relationship.
