In 2019, the Gomez family was in a secure place -- a snug rental home for the four of them and a good restaurant job for Mr. Gomez. They even had a little savings. But then, a house fire took their rental home and all of their belongings. It was tough managing this as their new baby was born in early 2020 -- and then Covid-19 hit. Mr. Gomez's work hours were drastically cut.

For the Gomez family, JFS's ability to serve as a one-stop resource providing a comprehensive system of care was critical. Without a lot of red tape, we were able to quickly provide online counseling sessions for the stressed parents and their two adolescent children. We provided help paying their rent and connected them with our Alex and Sally Lebwohl Food Pantry where they could access both food and diapers. With this comprehensive system of care, the Gomez family is getting back on their feet.

JFS offers personalized services that take into account all the issues a family might be facing. Our holistic approach makes it possible for clients to get through the challenges in their lives.
