Slor\u00a0was interviewed on Israel Channel 14\u2019s\u00a0 \u201c4PM\u201d Current Affairs program to discuss the deteriorating state of our children\u2019s mental health following the COVID epidemic.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The impetus for the interview was the recently released report of Israel\u2019s Council for Children\u2019s Safety. The report found that since the onset of the corona virus, there has been a significant deterioration in the mental health of children studying in Israel\u2019s schools. Slor noted that the report is indeed very worrisome and that the numbers are getting worse. He stressed that this unfortunate situation regarding the mental health of children cuts across sectors, religions, and socioeconomic conditions, affecting the entire country. Slor said our job is to recognize the seriousness and wide ranging nature of the problem and to ensure for Israel\u2019s various government ministries (Health and Welfare, Internal Security etc.) to work together with its well-trained social workers, youth guides etc. in order to alleviate the problem.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to his work at Ono, Slor\u00a0also serves as Director of the Education for the Treatment Commission for Youth-at-Risk in the Hila Program of Israel\u2019s Ministry of Education.
