Бней Акива
Historically, Bnei Akiva has operated several Gap Year programs. Until the 1980s, members of Bnei Akiva of the US and Canada participated in Hachshara. Since 1982, Bnei Akiva has offered a program called Tochnit Nissan for members studying in Israel during the month of Nissan. Traditionally, this program took place on a kibbutz, though other options are now offered. In the early 1990s, a program called Midrash Uma'aseh existed and drew many of the most involved members of Bnei Akiva.
