In this guest post, Dr. Eliana M. Aaron from EMA Care provides a comprehensive checklist of medical supplies and medicines that it may be worth bringing with you from home when you go on your GAP year to Israel.

With so many yeshivas, seminaries and general Israel experience programs to choose from, we've put together a comprehensive guide that provides detailed questions, suggestions, and issues for students and their parents to consider when choosing a GAP year program. 

Welcome to the Israel Gap Year Program database, the first comprehensive listing of every GAP year program in Israel, including Yeshivas, Seminaries and Coed programs. 

We've been helping parents pack for Israel for many years and we often hear similar questions and concerns from our customers as the start of the year approaches. To help put your mind at ease, we've put together 6 of the most common questions and answers about ordering for Israel.

Everything from your child's mental health to how much spending money they need, this is the ultimate handbook for the Israel GAP year parent.

This guide, filled with useful tips and tricks, is about the ‘how’ of packing and focuses on two questions: What types of things should I buy in Israel and what should I bring from home?

 

We're part of a great Facebook group of Israel GAP year parents. We've taken the feedback and comments from parents on that list and compiled the ultimate packing lists for seminary girls and Yeshiva boys.

To answer this question, we combed the “Israel GAP Year Parents” Facebook group and reviewed literally hundreds of comments by GAP year parents. In this article we’ll give you an overview of the main factors to consider when addressing this issue.

We asked parents who have already sent their kids on a GAP year program to Israel to offer advice to new GAP year parents sending their children for the first time. Here is what they said about how to relate to your child when they are so far away for the entire year.

After sending her first kid on GAP year and then getting ready to send her second child, Tracy Schultz realized that that there are no easily accessible  'to-do' lists to prepare for the year. Tracy took action and gathered feedback from other GAP year parents and students to compile this comprehensive preparation checklist for new GAP year parents.
