Effective communication within the Yeshiva learning environments is a crucial yet often challenging aspect of fostering a positive and supportive educational atmosphere. This presentation, tailored for educators and mental health professionals, aims to inform, educate, and inspire participants on the nuances of communication in Yeshivas.

In exploring "How To Talk So Yeshivas Will Listen," we delve into the unique challenges faced by parents, teachers, and students in Orthodox Jewish settings. Highlighting the collaboration, the presentation underscores the transformative impact of this skill on communication dynamics. The session also emphasizes the value of tailoring communication strategies to meet the diverse needs of students in Yeshivas.

Statistics on the prevalence of mental health struggles among students in educational environments provide a sobering backdrop. By understanding these challenges, educators and mental health professionals can better navigate and address the complex landscape of student well-being.
