About Bartali Youth in Movement:
Bartali - Youth in Movement operates a network of cycling centers for at-risk youth aged 13-18, who mainly live in youth villages and welfare boarding facilities throughout Israel.

The annual programs are designed to fit and complement the unique educational and therapeutic missions of the various facilities, impart cycling skills, promote motivation and self-discipline, expand the youth\\\\'s sense of responsibility and capability, aid in developing perseverance and determination and create a strong sense of teamwork.
