Every parent we met in the hospital knew of some resource or tip or information that made all the difference. Imagine if all that knowledge lived in one place, so no family had to figure it out on their own.
One place. Everything you need.
No two families fit in the same box. We listen, then match you to the help that fits.
We set you upOne call or message and we take it from there: meals, a place to stay, rides, the right people.

Who we areParents who have walked this road
Ezer BaDerech was started by parents who went through the same thing, or something close to it.
We remember the first night in the hospital, the phone calls and the questions nobody had time to answer. And we know how a single resource, contact or tip can make all the difference.
When you get a diagnosis, you don’t have room to research, compare and organize. You shouldn’t have to. That’s what we’re here for: to guide you, to find what you need, and to carry some of the weight together with you.
Every family’s situation is different. We don’t hand you a list. We listen, and match you to the people and resources that fit your needs.
We listen firstYou don’t need to know what to ask. Tell us what’s going on, and we’ll take it from there.
We find it for youThe right organizations, a place to stay, rides and the information that matters, when you need it.
We stay with youOne step at a time, for as long as you need us.
What’s the best way to talk?
Reach a volunteer any way that’s easy for you. You don’t need to know what to ask. Many of us are parents who have been through this too.

The Ezer BaDerech app Beta
Coming soon.
Everything near your hospital in one place: the chessed room, kosher food, a place to stay, shuls and mikvahs with walking times, Shabbos times and the organizations that can help.
It works even with no reception or data, deep inside the hospital.
We’re testing it now with a few families. Want to try it early?
I’d like to try it earlyHow would you like to ask?
Help us make this better
We’re new, and we need your input. Tell us what’s missing, wrong or hard to find. A volunteer reads every message.
Know something that would help the next family?
A chessed room, an organization, a door that’s open on Shabbos, a parking tip. Tell us and a volunteer will check it and add it.
