Group Services

Groups are valuable as they provide individuals with a common need, concern, or experience a place to share and support with each other under the guidance and skill of an experienced, empathetic licensed professional therapist. Groups can be effectively utilized in addition to other counseling services or independently.  JFS offers group counseling and support groups in the JFS offices as well as in community venues, including local synagogues and schools.  Click to see a full list of groups.

Hebrew Free Loan of NJ

Hebrew Free Loan of NJ provides interest free loans to members of the Jewish Community who reside in the areas covered by the Jewish Federation of Greater MetroWest New Jersey and the Jewish Federation of the Heart of New Jersey. Loans are provided for many purposes, except for student loans. Examples of typical loans are:

  • Medical Expenses
  • Debt Consolidation
  • Home Improvement or Repair
  • Costs Related to Adoption
  • Starting or Expanding a Business

Borrowers must have the potential to repay the loan and need to provide post-dated checks in the full amount. Certain loans require one or two cosigners (two for home improvement and business loans), and the cosigner must live in New Jersey. The cosigner becomes responsible for the loan repayment in the event the borrower cannot meet his/her obligation.

Hebrew Free Loan of New Jersey holds to the highest standard of confidentiality.

Please call 973-637-1739 to get started if you reside in the Greater MetroWest area; Monmouth County residents can call 732-774-6886; Middlesex County residents can call 732-777-1940.


Financial Crisis Intervention: Safety Net Services

JFS staff will work with you to fully understand your financial distress. Through a process of budgeting, planning and referrals to community resources, staff will help you achieve greater control and mastery over your financial challenges. During this process, financial assistance may be offered to help you through a critical time.

The JFS Healthcare Emergency Relief Fund and the JFS Safety Net Fund provide eligible JFS clients with access to emergency assistance to meet their needs.  The Safety Net Fund is supported in part by JFS donors and in part through the Greater Newark Holiday Fund, an annual campaign administered by the Star Ledger.
