What we aim to solve
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Counseling
Our clinical team HELPS individuals of all ages on their HEALING journeys in coping with emotional, situational and ongoing mental health concerns through the provision of evidence-based, compassionate therapy & support.
Therapy is facilitated by licensed social workers and licensed clinical social workers who address the needs of their clients with individualized treatment plans for a range of concerns including: anxiety, depression, ADHD, stress, PTSD, bereavement, parenting, divorce, life transitions or school & work related challenges
Food Pantry & Distribution
JFCS serves as a beacon of HOPE to those facing unexpected crises in their lives. Through the HELP of a range of food programs we serve the most vulnerable populations in Mercer County.
We know in the greater Mercer County area, there is hunger. There are community members looking for a food pantry or food bank near them…and sometimes, even when the resources are available, there are significant obstacles to accessing these locations. This was the driving force behind the JFCS Mobile Food Pantry.
Senior Services
Our agency is proud to offer a wide range of senior services to members of our community. We HELP seniors age-in-place and ensure they receive regular, hot nutritious meals. Seniors find HEALING through support groups to work through age-related challenges. Tailored social & educational programs, as well as care management ensure comfort in the golden years.
Volunteer Engagement
Our robust volunteer opportunities engage members of the community in hands-on HELP in supporting our clients. We offer service projects for all ages, for all levels of commitment, and for individuals, families or corporate groups.
Youth Programming
Gesher LeKesher (Bridge to a Connection) is a national teen mentoring and leadership program implemented in synagogues for Jewish teens.
The Jewish Community Youth Foundation (JCYF) is a Jewish youth philanthropy program for teens in grades 8 through 12.
