ABOUT THIS EPISODE

In this heartfelt and inspiring episode, we sit down with Rabbi Simcha Dessler to reflect on the remarkable legacy of his father, Rabbi Nachum Zev Dessler zt”l, his grandfather Rabbi Eliyahu Eliezer Dessler zt”l, and his great grandfather, Rav Reuven Dessler zt”l. Rabbi Dessler shares personal memories, profound insights, and the values that have shaped generations of Torah leaders. Together, we explore how the Dessler family’s deep commitment to mussar and chinuch continues to influence Jewish education — from the hallowed halls of the Gateshead Yeshiva to the thriving Torah institutions of Cleveland and beyond. Listeners will gain a unique perspective on what it means to build a legacy rooted in ruchniyus, love for every talmid, and an unwavering dedication to Klal Yisrael.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Adir Academy will be the nation’s first Jewish therapeutic day school in U.S. for students with mental health challenges

Therapeutic schools are highly effective at serving students with significant mental health needs, such as anxiety, depression, OCD, emotional dysregulation, and/or a history of suicidal ideation or self-injurious behaviors. For a family already struggling with the pain and fear that comes with helping their child through a mental health crisis, the lack of a Jewish educational option for their child compounds the family’s suffering. For the child, the message that the Jewish community has no place for them can be devastating and have lifelong impacts.
