1,850 social workers from all over the country who take care of the survivors of the party massacre participated in the survey.
According to the chairman of the Union of Women Workers and Social Workers, lawyer Inbal Harmoni, "The Black Sabbath disaster brought the social services in Israel to a serious crisis. The system owes an addition of 5,000 lawyers to the public service, in addition to an incentive system that will enable their recruitment.
The massacre and the ongoing fighting have wide and deep consequences that we will continue to see in the coming years.
The state must thicken the public system significantly in order to deal with the consequences."
