Resources for Parents of Lone Soldiers

We understand that being the parent of a Lone Soldier comes with a unique mix of pride and concern. When you are thousands of miles away, staying connected is everything.

The Nefesh B’Nefesh-FIDF Lone Soldiers Program is here to bridge that distance. We’ve developed these resources to help you stay informed, navigate the IDF, and remain deeply connected to your child’s journey.
