MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD CHAIR
AND THE PRESIDENT & CEO
DEAR BOARD MEMBERS, SUPPORTERS, VOLUNTEERS, AND FRIENDS,
We are pleased to present you with the 2016-2017 Annual Report on the activities of Ruth & Norman Rales
Jewish Family Services (JFS). Our fiscal year runs from September 1, 2016 through August 31, 2017.
During this fiscal year JFS received our largest single one-time gift in the agency’s history from the Estate of
Bernard Sherman. This $2.3M gift will support our many programs and services which serve people of all ages
and beliefs. In addition, our annual fundraising and legacy giving efforts continue to grow with several new and
increased gifts.
We are extremely proud that for the third year in a row, JFS has earned a Four Star Rating from Charity Navigator,
America’s largest independent charity evaluator. This designation is important because our donors can trust that
JFS utilizes our funds wisely in fulfilling our mission of providing help, hope and humanity to our neighbors in
need. Also, for the third year in a row, JFS was named a Top Workplace by the Sun-Sentinel. The three years
represent every year that the Top Workplace has existed in our area. What
makes this award truly special is that the evaluation is based upon the
feedback provided by our dedicated staff.
Since adding the Center for Families and Children, JFS has had the staff
capacity to deploy immediately after a tragedy to support the community
in times of need. Our Community Outreach professionals have provided
support groups, linkages to emergency financial assistance and other available
community resources following a hurricane or other crisis. As time goes on, the
impact of having the Center for Families and Children is evidenced by the many
positive outcomes resulting from all the program under this Center’s umbrella.
One of those positive outcomes is in the Special Needs Department which
added a for-fee case management service for adult children living in our
community. This was created as a response to a community request, specifically
for adults with disabilities, whose needs differ from our existing geriatric case
management program, CareLink. Through donor support, JFS is able to provide
both of these programs on a sliding-scale basis for those who qualify.
Recognizing the on-going and continued increased needs of our Holocaust
Survivor clients, JFS received additional funding from the Claims Conference
for Holocaust Survivor Assistance Program. In addition, as a result of grass
roots efforts by many of our donors and supporters, we were able to
successfully maintain current State of Florida funding for this program during
the budgeting cycle.
Outgrowing our current space on the Federation campus, in August of 2017,
JFS staff from our Senior Services and Career and Employment Services (CES)
departments relocated into new space providing a state of the art training
facility for CES, and allowing other programs the space they needed to
continue to provide services.
JFS at Home, Inc. began repayment of the loan from JFS for start-up and
operating costs. JFS continues to be a great partner of JFS at Home, Inc. as we
strive to continue as the premiere human service agency serving our community.
None of these accomplishments could ever be achieved without the efforts
of our dedicated staff, Board of Directors, volunteers and YOU, our generous
supporters. Thank you for your generosity in support of our work.
Sincerely,
Ron Reshefsky
Chair, Board of Directors
Danielle N. Hartman

able to cook for themselves.
JON AND ANNIE
Jon and Annie were living the American dream - until they weren’t.
With two kids, a house in the suburbs, and a double income, they
had money for Little League and dance lessons and the occasional
date night. But Jon, a respected civil engineer, lost his job in the last
recession. Eventually, he took whatever employment he could find,
even if he was over-qualified, becoming one of an estimated 9 million
Americans who is underemployed. Initially, the couple was able to
dip into their savings and 401(k) for the essentials: health insurance,
rent, power bill, groceries. They were reluctant to contact JFS, as the
couple was used to their role of a JFS supporter, not a JFS client. When
they came to us requesting assistance, we were able to help them
by providing food through our Jacobson Family Food Pantry and by
providing emergency financial assistance.
HIGHLIGHTS
A total of $305,000 in financial assistance
was provided.
146 Jacobson Family Food Pantry Food Drives were
held throughout the year.
110,000 pounds of food was distributed through
the Jacobson Family Food Pantry.

Care specialists help seniors age in place
safely for as long as possible with dignity and independence.
Services include assessment and planning, care coordination,
patient advocacy, information and referral, companionship and
many socialization opportunities. JFS is a vital link between
loved ones living in our community and their families living
out of state.
BEA
Bea spent her youth being sent from concentration camp to
concentration camp. Now at 97 years old, all she wants is to be
able to live in her own home for as long as possible. Because of
JFS, she can. Bea receives home care and personal care through
our Holocaust Survivors Assistance Program. Participating in
socialization opportunities through our Telephone Reassurance
and Friendly Visitor Programs reduces her feelings of isolation. In
order to ensure Bea keeps up her strength, JFS provides her with
food from our Jacobson Family Food Pantry. Bea is an intelligent,
articulate and a very proud person who values her independence.
Thanks to the services she receives through JFS, Bea is able to age
in place with grace and dignity.

bodies stay active and friendships are made. In June of 2015,
JFS kicked off the Rales Rides program. The bus transportation

JUDIE & STAN
Judie and Stan are performers at heart and lucky for us they
love sharing their passion for dancing and acting by starring in
Weisman Center productions.
Val Chevron, director of Weisman Center performances met
the couple at a dance hall almost two years ago. Upon seeing
them dance, Val immediately recruited them stating, “I need
you for our shows!”
Stan stated “We love the fact that we can entertain so many
people by doing what we love.”
When they are not preparing for an upcoming role, Judie & Stan
participate in acting, dancing and even Improv classes, all offered
at the Weisman Center.
Judie added “Improv is great for improving memory. Stan
is incorporating his Improv skills in his upcoming role as a
stand-up comedian.”
Judie and Stan met eleven years ago at a dance studio in
Pompano. Both recently widowed at the time, found support
in each other, which helped
them get through the difficult
times. Celebrating 10 years
of marriage, their shared
love for performing and
more recently, participating
in classes and performances
at the Weisman Center, keep
them going.
Over 85,000 total visits to the WDCC this past year.
100 Volunteers donated their time in a variety of
ways at the WDCC.

DAVID
When David walked into our offices for an initial assessment, his
fragile emotional state was both complicated and textbook. At 55,
he had lost his mother, for whom he had cared in her final months.
He’d also lost a brother, felt estranged and harshly judged by his
sister, and had never been close with his father. Timid and softspoken,
he spent most days alone with his cat. He is also gay, which
made him feel even more misunderstood and isolated. But David
had a bachelor’s degree in psychology. He had worked as a medical
coder. David initially had come to JFS for help finding a career
path, but we recognized his counseling needs. After six months
of therapy, he has developed life-changing skills in assertiveness,
communication, acceptance, mindfulness, and self-compassion.
Today, he attends a weekly LGBTQ support group facilitated by
JFS. He also has twice-a-week therapy sessions and has worked
very successfully to recognize the power of his persistence. David’s
counselor says he is one of her most treasured cases. “It has been,”
she says. “a joyful journey.”

in our community. JFS received its largest one-time gift in the
agency’s history from the Estate of Bernard Sherman. A portion
of the $2.3M endowment will provide financial assistance to
teens in our community enabling them to participate in Jewish
life cycle events such as hebrew school, Jewish youth group trips
& conventions, participation in the Maccabi Games, advocacy
conferences, Israel experiences including High School in Israel,
Gap Year Programs, and the March of the Living. This past year,
JFS had expanded its Special Needs services by providing case

DANA
At 23, Dana had thought she had met the perfect man.
Unfortunately, after they got married, Billy became controlling
and violent. A few months before we met her at a shelter, he had
broken her arm. She swore it would be the last time he would ever
hurt her. JFS helped her buy clothes and other essentials because
she and her children, ages 2 and 4, had fled with very little. JFS
paid her phone bill and helped with childcare while she looked
for work. Eventually, Dana landed a job, and through our referral
to Palm Beach County Victim Services, she was able to find an
apartment. Her JFS Case Worker checks in with her from time
to time. “I never knew life could be so peaceful,” Dana told us
recently. “Thanks to JFS the kids and I are so happy.”

From first time job seekers to those
in career transition, Career & Employment Services (CES) is a
free program focusing on clients’ individual strengths and goals.
Career strategists create customized action plans to transform
clients into job ready candidates aimed towards career success.
This past year CES expanded its programing by adding three
Transitions To Success Programs – each targeted to a specific
market or demographic: Comeback Career for women looking
to make a comeback in their personal and professional lives;
GY6 Veterans Alliance helping veterans and service personnel
transition into the civilian workforce; and WTOF Working
Towards Our Future which helps high school graduates and
those just starting a career with the skills they need to land and
keep a job.
RIKKI
Sometimes around the office, we call Rikki our comeback kid. “I was
so apprehensive about getting back into the work force,” says Rikki,
a JFS Career & Employment Services (CES) client who participated in
our aptly named Comeback Career Program. “But with your support,
encouragement and step-by-step plan, I was able to overcome all the
obstacles I had in my way.” The biggest obstacle? “Going on that
interview,” she says. For a lot of complicated reasons, Rikki hadn’t
worked in a while. So when she was finally ready to re-enter the
workforce, she was full of trepidation. Things had changed rather
rapidly out there in the work force and she was nervous about writing
a resume, filling out a job application and even deciding on what to
wear. JFS helped her handle all of those challenges. She also meets
with what she calls “a wonderful group of women” from the Dress
for Success program - a non-profit agency that JFS often partners
with - and they’re helping her make the right choices about a new
work wardrobe. “JFS and specifically, the ‘Comeback Career’ Program
at CES helped me have confidence and feel good about myself,” she
says, about her comeback. “I was able to close one chapter, and start
a new one.”

Volunteers remain critical to JFS’
success and the Agency would not be able to provide help to as
many people in our community without their gift of time and
talent. Each year over 1,000 program and special event volunteers,
donate the equivalent of nearly 40,000 hours of service to JFS.
Our volunteers mentor children and teens, lead Shabbat services
at assisted living facilities and nursing homes, provide rides for
seniors in need of transportation, deliver freshly prepared meals
through our Meals on Wheels program, and reduce the isolation
of homebound seniors through daily telephone calls, friendly
visits and care packages.

*According to Independent Sector, a leadership network for non-profits, who independently

Madeline Syde likes doing for others, and collecting gifts is a big
part of what she is known for at JFS. Madeline can take a scrap of
blue foil paper, wrap it around a fun tchotchke, tie it up with some
ribbon, and, create happiness. “Everyone likes to get something
pretty,” says Madeline, 84, who helps run the Monday morning
Feldman Family Diamond Club meetings at the Weisman Delray
Community Center. If you attend these events, you will be greeted
by her at the front door, reminding you to enjoy a challah roll and
stay around for the talk on current events. But Madeline’s real claim
to fame might be the three parties she helps organize - Purim, Senior
Prom and Hanukkah - and the trouble she goes through to collect
and wrap all of the gifts. Cards, certificates, re-gifted treasures. She’s
already started storing the wrapped presents in her closet for next
Hanukkah. Madeline, who lives in Boca Raton, started volunteering
with us after her husband, Harvey, died in 2009. Giving-back is part
of her DNA. “I had two wonderful parents who taught me what
tzedakah meant,” she says. “I learned a long time ago that if you’re
going to do something, you need to put your heart into it.”

convert their Donor Advised Fund into a permanent endowment to ensure the
continuity of these programs after their lifetime.
GIVING IS A FAMILY TRADITION
Illana and Samy Dwek wanted to continue their family’s tradition of supporting
their local community and always giving to those most in need. That is why the
Dweks chose to make a bequest in their will to JFS, ensuring the continuity of our
programs after their lifetime.
HOW BLESSED ARE WE?
This question is frequently posed by Diane & Larry Feldman when surrounded
by the seniors they support through the Feldman Family Diamond & Adventure
Clubs. That is why the Feldmans chose to make a bequest in their will to JFS,
ensuring the continuity of their programs after their lifetime.
MAKING AN IMPACT
Michele and David Katzman are dedicated to helping others. In order to ensure
the continuity of their impact after their lifetime, they chose to name JFS as a
beneficiary in their IRA.
