Celebrate the 150th Anniversary of JFS and explore the history of our agency with Past-Forward, an exhbit produced by the Jewish Historical Society of MetroWest that opens on September 15 at the Alex Aidekman Family Jewish Community Campus in Whippany.  

With archival photos and personal stories, Past-Forward showcases the many contributions of JFS's leadership, volunteers and staff. The panels comprising Past-Forward will be on display through November 17, before travelling to various community venues to coincide with JFS programming.

JFS acknowledges the generous underwriting support of the Healthcare Foundation of New Jersey for its sponsorship of the Past-Forward exhibit.
