Our work would not be possible without government funding, which makes up 80% of our budget and covers necessities such as food, shelter, and basic staffing. The nature of the system of payment funneling is complicated and impersonal, and Jarc transforms these coveted dollars into hands-on, personalized care.
The remaining 20% comes from our generous donors and provides everything "extra" that makes life fun and exciting for those we serve.
“Jarc made a place for all our families to rest assured that our family members would be safe, secure and well looked after.”

“I am the Guardian of my niece and have been involved and working with Jarc for over 20 years in multiple capacities. Jarc has prepared, supported and encouraged my niece and I through the inevitable challenges a special needs individual and family face. Their direct care staff and administrative personnel are always available and ready to address any situation, irrespective of the time or effort required. The multiple and varied programs they sponsor, often within a Judaic cultural framework, inspire the development and independence of their clients as well as delivering happiness and joy. Jarc is truly a unique organization, with the resources, resolve and sense of mission that their clients and their families need in these times of increasing societal difficulties and funding threats. My family is incredibly grateful for all that Jarc has done and continues to do for my niece, and for us. Thank you Jarc!”

“My brother lives a very fulfilled life thanks to Jarc. They connected him with an amazing volunteer who takes him and a housemate to discover the many activities and attractions in the Detroit metro area. Most importantly, Jarc enables my brother to live his life independent of his family and feel like a loved member of his community. The people who work for Jarc are very caring individuals. Finding this kind of organization isn’t easy, but knowing all that Jarc and the staff do means understanding Jarc’s worth.”

“My brother is served by Jarc. He is always in a great mood and that is the result of the incredible staff. My family simply could not provide all my brother’s needs and Jarc can and does beautifully. Not only do they provide for his daily needs, he lives a full life with the services and programs Jarc provides. Without Jarc, I don’t know what we would do. Words cannot express how grateful and thankful we are that Jarc takes such wonderful care of my brother.”
