Kfar Zoharim (Hebrew: כְּפַר זָהֳרִים, lit. 'Village of Lights'), officially Ramot Yehuda-Zoharim (Hebrew: רמות יהודה-זוהרים, lit. 'Judea Heights-Lights'), is an Israeli educational therapy youth village for teenagers aged 14–18 from the ultra-orthodox community who do not fit into regular educational frameworks. It falls under the jurisdiction of Mateh Yehuda Regional Council. In 2022 it had a population of 155.[1]
The village was established in 1993 by former members of the Black Panthers. It was named after the singer Zohar Argov, a drug addict.[2] The village was managed by Ramot Yehuda, an organization that received funding from the National Authority for the War on Drugs. The treatment program lasted a year and a half. There was also an emergency center for drug addicts.
