Kochav: Families and Individuals with Special Needs
The term kochav in Hebrew means “star;” it is our belief that each of our clients is a star and can reach their maximum potential when given the right tools and support.
JFS provides supportive services for persons of all age ranges with special needs and physical disabilities.
Case Management
Our community social workers provide case management to adults with physical, intellectual and/or emotional disabilities, who are in need of assistance with a wide-range of life skills, including everything from finding employment to applying for benefits.
