About Jewish Family Service of Orange County

Jewish Family Service of Orange County is a provider of human services that helps people connect with the greater community and available resources. We educate people about services that they may not be aware of; we offer support and provide meaningful tools.


Mission: Jewish Family Service empowers all people facing challenging times to live with dignity, hope, and strength.

Vision: We envision a welcoming and nurturing community in which individuals and families receive encouragement, support, and respect.

Values: Our goal is to connect individuals with the resources they need in order to build community support by strengthening family ties and providing meaningful communication tools. We at JFS are inspired by Jewish values, such as

  • Providing assistance to individuals in need
  • Offering acts of loving kindness
  • Making the world a better place

These values empower us to provide a variety of services to all individuals and offer a safe and welcoming environment for the entire community. If our agency cannot provide needed services directly, we will guide you to places that can meet your needs. Our doors are open to the entire community.

Senior Independence Program services are provided by volunteers trained by Jewish Family Service agency staff. These volunteers provide transportation, grocery shopping assistance, and socialization through wellness calls and home visits for older adults ages 60+. 

Other agency services include Case Management, Individual and Group Counseling, Programs for Adults and Children with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, Holocaust Survivor Program, Alzheimer's and Caregiver Support, and Financial Empowerment

Our roots go back to 1984 when we were created by the Jewish Federation of Greater Orange County. In 1990, JFS became a tax exempt nonprofit 501c3 organization. We continue to be a recipient agency of the Jewish Federation. We are delighted to have many partners throughout the region. For forty years, it has been an honor to serve the entire Orange County community.
