About
The Resources You Need. The Compassion You Deserve.
Mission
Jewish Family & Children’s Service cares for individuals and families by providing exceptional human services guided by Jewish traditions of social responsibility, compassion, and respect for all members of the community. We help individuals and families build a strong foundation for resilience and well-being across the lifespan, from infancy to old age.
For more than 150 years, JF&CS’s integrated services have helped people address mental health and well-being, economic insecurity, and disability supports.
Our staff of 300 professionals and 2,200 active volunteers serve more than 14,000 people each year throughout Eastern Massachusetts. JF&CS combines personalized, “high-touch” services with data-driven continuous improvement.
