Today, on the occasion of the opening of the school year, we placed letters in Educational Psychological Services (EPS) centers across the country, with a clear message:

We, as mental health and welfare professionals, cannot remain silent in the face of a reality of continuous harm to children and the education system in Gaza.

While in the public discourse there is silencing, fear, and denial – we choose to use our professional voice to remind of: the ongoing harm to the education and mental well-being of the students in Gaza.

In addition, we also sent the letter by email to all the directors of the EPS centers in the country.

This action is a call to stop the harm, and our moral stand against what we identify as genocide.

Thank you to everyone who took part and placed a letter 🙏 The letter can be read at the link.
