ABOUT JFS

Paul S. Castro, Executive Director & Dena Schechter, President

Welcome to Jewish Family Service of Los Angeles (JFS). Since 1854 we have provided vital services to people of all ages, ethnicities and religions. JFS' nationally recognized programs provides personal growth opportunities for people of all ages, counsel families and individuals, support the elderly and the recent immigrant, house the homeless and abused, and feed the hungry.

JFS' staff of more than 400 includes licensed clinical social workers, psychologists, public health experts, physical therapists, gerontologists, nurses, chefs, drivers and more. They, along with more than 1,000 dedicated volunteers, serve more than 60,000 people every year.

From support groups for all ages, to activities for the developmentally disabled to exercise and wellness programs for seniors to programs for children and teens to support for families dealing with illness, to programs with synagogues and local schools, JFS has a program to help you. We hope this Web site will guide you to the resources you need to live a richer, more satisfying life.
