The "Ultimate Day"– Orientation Day for the Staffs of the Organizations on Campus – Ben Shemen Forest April 26, 2018 Background and Goal: One of the goals we set out to accomplish with the opening of the children’s campus was to address the element of burnout that so typifies the staff members working with maltreated children. Therefore we initiated an ODT activity program towards mid-year that was both challenging and unifying. Emphasis was put on team work and cooperation on both physical and mental tasks, competition between mixed groups and a shared experience that provides relief from the tension-filled day-to-day work. At the end of the day, each participant received a token gift. Target Population: The staffs of the organizations at the Haruv Children's Campus.

Number of Participants: 115

Location: Ben-Shemen Forest
