Testimonials
I am a senior who is still able to do some light chores. So I am grateful for the opportunity to help others who cannot by raking leaves during Fall Fix Up. I am also a client with JFS and this is how I can, in a small way, say ‘thank you’ for the support JFS has given me.

You all go out of your way to make the residents feel right at home here and do all that you can for them. Thank you so much for all that you do!
