About
Our goal is to build a community of empowered lives by making hope and opportunity happen.
Jewish Family & Career Services (JF&CS), established in 1891, helps improve the quality of life and build self-sufficiency for individuals and families in greater Atlanta.
We are a welcoming community and provide counseling and career support, and services for older adults and individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Additionally, we operate a full-service dental clinic. Our highly-skilled professionals serve thousands of individuals annually regardless of age, race, religion, national origin or ability to pay.
JF&CS is a proud partner of the Jewish Federation of Greater Atlanta and United Way of Greater Atlanta. Accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities.
Our Leadership
Jewish Family & Career Services thrives today as one of the largest and most progressive human services agencies in our community thanks to the legacy of our leadership.
Leadership of a cause "to serve the needs of others" is not inspired by a desire for fame or fortune. The individuals who committed to guide our agency were driven by a genuine concern for others and a passion for their community. Indeed, our leaders have changed the world for thousands of people they will never even meet.
