Alut – the Israeli Society for Autistic Children

The young city of Modiin has already more than two hundreds Children and adults with Autism. The city recognized the need and allocated a 1 acre property, in a residential neighborhood, for ALUT to establish a Home for Life.

The Home, 1400 square meters, will be built on a ground overlooking a beautiful landscape, located in green surroundings. This special location will enable members some independence and an opportunity to integrate into the community.

The Home for Life in Modiin will accommodate between 24 – 27 autistic teenagers and adults with various degrees of functioning ability.

DesignA great deal of thought has been put into the design of the Home, based on the extensive experience ALUT has acquired over the 40 years  of establishing and operating such Homes, 18 to date, all across Israel..

Members will dwell in three wings, each housing 'a family' of 8-9 residents.  Each wing will function as an entirely autonomous unit, containing a kitchen, dining room, living room, and individual bedrooms and bathrooms.Additionally, the Home will include a central area serving all three houses and acting as a link between them.  This area will contain a few common services: an office, activity hall,, treatment rooms and gym. In addition, residential units will be built for the Home Manager and for volunteers.

How much will it cost?

Projected building cost: $ 4,000,000
