Psychological Services for Bedouin Schools in Southern Israel

A Chronicle and Critique

Yerucham, Israel

From 1978 to 1981 a small school psychology service was set up for Bedouin schools in southern Israel. A systems approach was adopted in attempting to cope with achieving at least a minimum impact with less than minimum resources. The service concentrated upon identification and treatment of children with special needs, early prevention of learning and behavioral problems, and staff development and consultation. Techniques are discussed which were used to relate to these problems in the context of a cross-cultural setting. The demise of the service was caused by accelerated burnout.
