This study was carried out by Michlol- the Evaluation and Measurement Unit of the Shalem Fund

The purpose of the current survey is to provide a snapshot and serve as a knowledge base for creating a tailored training program (including the development of support tools) for women with intellectual or cognitive disabilities who are about to get married. The survey questionnaire, found in Appendix 1, was developed by the ‘Michlol’ Unit (of the Shalem Foundation) in collaboration with the project’s steering committee. The questionnaire, built on the Google Forms platform, was distributed via WhatsApp and emails to bridal counselors and mikveh attendants in June 2024 by representatives from the Ministry of Religious Services and the Eden Association. The quantitative and qualitative data, received digitally from 71 survey respondents, was processed and analyzed by the ‘Michlol’ Unit and is presented in this document.
