Jewish Family Service works to strengthen individuals and families of all backgrounds through counseling, advocacy, care management, and education.
“I cannot properly express the depth of my appreciation to you for your consideration and gift in this time of uncertainty in my life. Thank you! I hope that one day not far from now that I will be in a position to help someone else as you have helped my son and me.”
Safety Net Financial Assistance
“JFS has helped my family through the years with counseling, home helpers, and community connections. They also got us connected with the Gleeful Choir. We are very grateful for the community and sharing that Gleeful Choir provides.”
Older Adult Programs
"It was important to me that you took the time to meet me where I was at. I feel less anxious and stressed out because I can tell people that I am not doing well and need help."
Mental Health Counseling
“After the second Zoom meeting, it seemed normal again. Everyone was very engaged and speaking up, being heard and listened to. I look forward to it every month... especially when we can gather in person again.”
