An interview with Tatyana Berlin, a well-known volunteer and consultant on social rights for repatriates. Berlin gives an example of how she secured a payment of 62,000 shekels from Bituah Leumi for a widowed pensioner who lost his wife and was left without means. She criticizes government agencies for the lack of information for repatriates in an accessible language. Berlin explains that many elderly repatriates lose benefits by failing to fill out Bituah Leumi forms on time. She also recounts her move from Likud to the Yisrael Beiteinu party, motivated by the fact that Yisrael Beiteinu MKs provided real help to repatriates, unlike Likud.
