Jewish Rehab Center
Retorno is a Jewish center which has elements of Judaism in and around the therapy program.
- We serve only Glatt Kosher food
- Shabbat and holidays are observed
- Women and men, including staff, dress modestly
- There are separate dining rooms and living facilities for men and women
- Prayers and classes in Judaism are available according to the client’s interests

No one is forced to keep mitzvot, but it is the general lifestyle at Retorno. As do most rehabilitation centers, we believe that spirituality provides a vital and extremely beneficial support in the healing process.
