Ellie Rothstein is currently the executive director of Kav L’Noar. He served as an educator in Yeshivos for many years, only to realize that there was a vital element missing from his students' educational milieu - an address for their emotional health needs. From there, Ellie began rigorous training in social work and multiple psychotherapy modalities which culminated in the founding of Shlavim, a grass-roots organization aimed at bridging the gap between yeshivot and the world of emotional health. As a part of this process, Ellie delved into the business side of running a not-for-profit. As Shlavim grew, Ellie's name became synonymous with the cutting edge of emotional health and running an effective not-for-profit.
