She said that she had read about it in Hebrew and had also spoken to a 'yoetzet mas' about it. She was told that you need 3 items; 1)a letter from your family doctor that includes the diagnosis of ADD/ADHD based on testing and evaluations done (neurological, psychological, didactic). 2) a letter from the education department that your child has been classified through a 'vaadat hasama' for special education. 3) a letter from the school where he/she is studying (and studied in the past) attesting to the special education status of his/her class. I hope I understood her correctly about these items since it was second hand. If anyone else has obtained other information, please share it with us. Good luck to all, Esther Schenker ##### To send a message to the ETNI list email: etni@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ##### ##### Send queries and questions to: ask@xxxxxxxx #####
