The JFS Mission Statement

Jewish Family Service of Rochester helps individuals and families navigate life’s transitions and challenges with comprehensive personalized social services, grounded in the time honored Jewish traditions of dignity, kindness and improving the world.

Who We Are…

By taking our communal responsibility seriously, we help countless adults, teenagers, and children through the transitions and crises of their lives. We have strengthened and educated many thousands of families over the last eight decades, and we continue to do so every single day.

First called the Jewish Welfare Council, then the Jewish Service Bureau, we are the agency that families and individuals have turned to for generations. These days, more people than ever are turning to JFS. And JFS is working harder than ever to meet all of their needs.
