| About Us |
Founded in 1892, Jewish Family Service provides comprehensive social services to the Jewish and general communities of Greater Seattle. The agency's mission, to help people help themselves, is fulfilled by multiple programs that offer support, stability, security and solutions for families and people of all ages challenged by poverty, aging, disability, domestic violence and resettlement. Workshops, events and counseling services enrich parents, families and individuals in diverse circumstances throughout the life cycle.
The interfaith programs are coordinated by the Family Life Education program staff, Marjorie Schnyder and Emily Harris-Shears.
In addition to events and classes, JFS has a Mother's Circle program, for moms from other backgrounds who are raising Jewish kids. Mother's Circle provides support, teaches about Jewish rituals, practices and values, and helps make connections to the Jewish community. Contact Marjorie at (206) 461-3240 or familylife@jfsseattle.org.
