Food & Financial Support

more than a safety net: a way forward

Financial hardship can impact every aspect of a person's life. It can lead to food insecurity, health problems, and even homelessness. In a similar way, hunger can undermine a person's ability to work, create family strife, and ultimately devastate one's financial health. Jewish Family Service attempts to interrupt the downward spiral by taking time to evaluate the whole person.

Depending on needs, JFS can connect you with::

emergency food and financial assistance
supportive counseling
expertise in care management
therapeutic socialization activities
health and wellness classes
and more...

At our Barbash Family Vital Support Center, individuals and families work closely with our expert staff to develop 360-degree insights that lead to enduring solutions. The vital support center also provides care management for clients who might benefit from a more holistic evaluation.

At our Heldman Family Food Pantry, we try to solve food struggles as quickly as possible, but that's only the beginning. We develop real relationships with clients—and try to learn why a situation might have got out of balance in the first place. By collaborating on sound strategies, we work together to restore this balance.
