We Are Here for You
Standing with Our Neighbors This World Refugee Day
For decades, Jewish Family Services has welcomed refugees seeking safety. Today, that promise faces its greatest test. With legal status threatened and safety nets shrinking, local families are fighting for survival. JFS is on the front lines providing emergency aid, employment support, and vital legal resources.
Stand firmly with our neighbors when they need it most. Your gift today is a vital lifeline.
Jewish Family Services helps individuals and families achieve economic self-sufficiency and emotional stability.
Supporting the Central Ohio Community since 1908, Jewish Family Services helps people find good jobs and companies find the right talent; supports older adults and caregivers in navigating the challenges of aging; provides critical services for refugees entering the U.S.; connects people to community resources; empowers family self-sufficiency through financial counseling; and engages volunteers in giving back.
We welcome individuals of all backgrounds – Jewish and non-Jewish – from every zip code in Central Ohio. We’re here for everyone.
