Jewish Family Service of St. Paul

Inspired by Jewish values, Jewish Family Service of St. Paul helps individuals and families build on their strengths to develop the skills and confidence to meet life’s challenges with dignity. For 110 years, we have been meeting the needs or our community's most vulnerable members.  Initially founded to assist Jews from Eastern Europe to resettle in the St. Paul area, JFS has developed into a multi-program agency serving individuals and families regardless of religion, race, ethnicity, gender or sexual orientation.

                  Care Management and Services

                  Kosher Meals on Wheels

                  Information and referral

                  Bi-lingual services to Russian and Somali speakers

                  PEARLS counseling for adults 55+ suffering from low mood or depression

Thanks to the generosity of our donors, JFS provides services to more than 3,700 people annually.
