Tomer Elyasyan
Director of Yahel Social Change Fellowship
Tomer was born and raised in Jerusalem in an orthodox Jewish family. At the age of 18, he decided to set out on a different path and now identifies as a formerly orthodox individual. His passion for groups and their potential to influence and positively impact lives was sparked during his participation in an academy for leadership, where he initially took part as a participant and later became a group coordinator.
He holds a Bachelor's Degree in informal education and a teaching certificate from Oranim College. Tomer has extensive experience as a group facilitator, working with both youth and adults. For the past few years, he has been dedicated to serving in a non-profit organization that assists individuals coping with social anxiety disorders and social difficulties.
In recent years, Tomer has dedicated himself to guiding individuals who have left the orthodox and ultra-orthodox lifestyles, providing support and education in areas related to intimacy, relationships, and sexual health.
