The Jewish community understands what it is like to leave one’s home and resettle in a foreign land. That historic experience fuels our desire to help refugees and immigrants make a successful transition to self-sufficiency. Our culturally diverse staff is recruited directly from the ethnic communities we serve.

The Family Reunification Program (Lautenberg) for lawful U.S. residents from former Soviet Union countries is now open!
JFS works with HIAS, formerly the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society, to resettle refugees assigned by the U.S. Department of State. We provide a required set of services from pre-arrival through the first 90 days of the resettlement period. But, our work with our new neighbors extends far beyond that initial three-month period, from Day 91 through citizenship. JFS helps refugees, immigrants and asylees to become economically, socially and civically integrated in our community.
JFS helps meet the needs of resettled refugees who have professional degrees and experience.
