Absorption centres
The Absorption Center is a unique Israeli housing arrangement where new immigrants can start their initial absorption process. Located throughout the country, they are temporary living quarters offering a supportive framework, tailored to immigrants' needs.
The centres' furnished rooms or apartments are available for rental at lower rates than in the private market, providing the new immigrant with a first destination and warm atmosphere as he becomes acquainted with Israeli society.
Ulpanim (intensive Hebrew classes) are available at most of the Absorption Centres and are staffed by highly professional teams who have long-term experience in assisting new olim families in the absorption process.
Residence in the Absorption Center is usually for a period of up to six months, though participants of specific student or other Aliyah programs may stay for the duration of their program. Spaces are limited, and potential olim are required to register with a Shaliach prior to Aliyah.
