Safety and Security

Israel and the current situation

Every effort is made to take precautions to secure the safety and welfare of the group.

We avoid areas that are known to be "hot spots." Should the situation become too dangerous for the welfare of trips to Israel, Taglit-Birthright Israel would initially cancel them. In addition, we keep abreast of daily events and we are prepared to adjust the schedule to maintain the group's safety.

Our program is designed to spend one week based out of the Jerusalem campus and the other week based out of our campus in Tzfat.

Prior to the program, you (and your parents) will be invited to join in a conference call with members of the staff from Israel, recent Livnot alumni and the other participants on your program to get a preview of the schedule, an explanation about security arrangements and a chance to ask any other questions you may have.

Please be advised that under current guidelines from Taglit-Birthright Israel there is no free time for participants on the program. You are welcome to extend your ticket to arrange for any additional visiting, touring, volunteering that you may choose to do upon completion of the program. However, during the duration of the Livnot program, all participants must be with the group at all times.

Please feel free to contact us should you have any further questions.
We look forward to meeting you in Israel!

This trip is a gift of Taglit-Birthright Israel.
