They are seeking support for families with high financial need and extenuating circumstances.

  Jewish Child and Family Service
  12 People Need Your Help
  
  

  “We are asking for $8,000 to assist 15 community members participating in addiction and mental health programming with home living essentials.”

  
  

  At JCFS, both the Mental Health and Addictions Programs have many transient clients facing homelessness and that frequently live in unstable housing situations. All are typically in financial need and most often living on welfare programs. JCFS generally assists clients in obtaining furnishings through donations, however, this is inconsistent and not always available.

  This year, JCFS needs to supply 15 program participants with modest home furnishings. These items often include beds, new mattresses, chairs, tables and various kitchen appliances. These larger items are less affordable to clients.

  The Need is $8,000 
  Funding Received $8,000
