Over the past five years, Haifa has consistently ranked among the top cities in Israel for welcoming new Olim. Thousands of olim have chosen to make Haifa their home, drawn by its vibrant community, quality of life, and supportive services.
The dedicated team at the Haifa Association for Immigrants Absorption is here to make your first steps as smooth and comfortable as possible. Even after your first year in the city, you’re still part of our community—you’re always welcome at our events and can reach out to our coordinators for guidance and support.
We’re so glad you chose our city. Wishing you a joyful and fulfilling life in Haifa!
Kirill Karetnik, Haifa City Council Member, Chairman of the Haifa Association for Immigrants Absorption
