JTC is proud to host advanced students from the Wurzweiler School of Social Work. Every year, a select group of second-year students are chosen to complete their Master’s level clinical fieldwork. Beyond being selected as gifted future clinicians, the students are provided with multi-layered supervision and training, in both individual and group settings.
JTC was born of a shared vision between Dr. Nechama Munk, director of Wurzweiler’s MSW program in Israel, and Yosi Golberstein, director of Amudim Israel. United by a commitment to clinical excellence and uncompromising professional standards, they partnered to create a center that reflects the values and strengths of both organizations.
