Israel and the social sector: a disaster

Israeli social action policies must absolutely create new means of combating exclusion,
against precariousness and disruptive situations, also stimulate a reflection on the practices support as well as training responding to the realities of social work.
In recent years, Israeli social laws have failed to respond upon request for the installation and adjustment of devices adapted to individual situations and more particularly to those of people fragile. Thus, we learn in a press release from ZAKA that “more than twenty percent of the population found dead in their homes in a state of decomposition and the statement added “Most, but not all, were old people living alone, with no one to take care of them … “
Despite the onset of COVID 19, the State of Israel cannot escape this demand for social efficiency. In Israel, the modernization of this sector requires innovation and experimentation to better respond to social demand and constantly evolving social action issues; experiment to analyze and evaluate the results before generalizing. Skills in this profession require:
Knowledge of the tools to fight and the means of recourse against the various forms of precariousness Evaluation methods and tools :
. Unlock difficult situations.
. Promote the expression of demand
. To promote the autonomy of the person and to contribute to making him / her actor as far          as possible.
The process of improving social quality is a major issue in this sector.
The foundations thus laid, which can serve the process of improving quality, requires:
Knowledge of institutions, actors and social partners.
So who should be doing this job?
Certainly not rabbis despite their skills in other areas. Excellent Israeli Minister Shulamit Aloni:
“Leave the Rabbis in their synagogues”
The courses leading to social professions are diverse. The university course remains the access route main. It can be supplemented by field experiences by testing motivation and psychological strength.
We do not improvise social actors.
