Location
Located in the heart of the Sharon valley north of Tel Aviv, Kfar Saba has grown into a city of close to 90,000.

Culturally self-sufficient, the municipality regularly sponsors a variety of music, theater and art programs for adults and children.
The Sapir Absorption Center was initially established in 1973 by the Jewish Agency, as a first home for young adults from all over the world.
The Center is actively involved in its local surroundings and maintains active ties with the local municipality, schools sports and voluntary organizations, youth movements, IDF units, banks and private organizations.
