Description

Gila’s Way is a non-profit organization which implements, educates and presents programs regarding mental health awareness and suicide prevention in order to save lives.

Rabbi Shalom Hammer, who has lived in Israel for more than 35 years, set up the organization following the tragic loss of his daughter Gila to suicide. He became a certified mental health instructor and now dedicates his life to promoting mental health awareness and suicide prevention across the globe. 

Rabbi Hammer is the author of ten books, including the Gila Spreads Joy children’s book series, written in Gila’s memory. KAN's Mark Weis spoke to him about his work.
