One of the core values at JCFS is an understanding that the community is essential to living. This core value is demonstrated in our participation in events like the Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Community Service, held January 15, 2018, at various places within Chicago.

On Sunday, October 22, 2017, Jewish Child & Family Services hosted Mazel Paws, a family-friendly event that raised needed funds for the JCFS Therapeutic Day School. Fifty guests, 25 dogs and 25 volunteers joined us at the Joy Faith Knapp Children’s Center for a fun morning that included a costume dog parade with awards and a special pet blessing conducted by Rabbi Brill.
