A 501 (c)3 non-profit agency, JFS is comprised of a dedicated board, a
committed staff--including masters level social workers and case
managers; and a multi-talented corps of devoted
volunteers.
For Jewish people in the metro Detroit area, JFS is the
safety net. JFS restores their dignity, and provides a lifeline of hope
and support. At JFS, we offer support for those beset with difficult
situations. We counsel families in crisis. We hold the hand of the
grieving. We assist
with food, shelter, access to healthcare and prescription medication.
Established in 1928, JFS continues to assist people in
the greater Detroit area regardless of race, religion, gender, or sexual
orientation.
JFS is a beneficiary agency of the Jewish Federation of
Metropolitan Detroit and United Way for Southeastern Michigan. The
agency also receives support from individuals contributions, bequests,
and foundation, corporate and government grants.
When you support JFS with a
financial contribution, you feed
children. You assist the frail. You help adolescents cope with divorce,
eating disorders, and the everyday struggles of growing up. Please join
our
Friends of the Family Campaign, and
help us to help those who need us the most.
