expansion of the program, 600 new members will be added to the virtual program with a goal of reaching 1,800

people by the end of three years

The program was originally developed to provide assistance and support to those living within regions that are

recognized as within "the line of fire". The emergency zone during "Operation Protective Edge" was considered the

Southern region of the country. As a result of the line of fire expanding and previous times of emergency, the

program is being expanded to provide assistance and support to those living across the country.

safetyNet was developed to serve people with mental illness. With the expansion of the program, the technology,

content and type of support will be modified to accommodate people with various types of disabilities. Staff (people

with disabilities) will undergo training to aquire the necessary information, know-how and skills needed to serve the

population.

implementation and distribution on a national level. SafetyNet is a system and platform that can easily be replicated and
