Abstract:

Intact Israeli families in New York were found in this study to be mostly undecided about their future plans regarding their stay in the United States. This state of "limbo" was reflected in specific patterns of utilization of social services, and in six major areas of concern and needs. Some policy dilemma and guidelines on ethnic dimensions in the delivery of social services, conclude the paper.
