AKIM-Jerusalem offers special care and support to persons with intellectual disabilities of all ages and levels of functioning, and to their families.

We believe that when parents and professionals work together they produce the best and most timely solutions for the needs of persons with disabilities. AKIM-Jerusalem, established in 1951 by Drs. Avraham and Mali Spighel, continuously renews itself. We are a Jerusalem-based, voluntary, non-profit association. We operate in the cultural and religious center of the world in the shadow of struggles, difficulties and divisions.
