Message from the

Board President & Executive Director

Dear Community Members, Friends, Supporters, Volunteers,

Partners and Neighbors,

As we write this letter, the results of the contentious and often ugly presidential

campaign continue to be felt. While Americans debate the values which should

guide our country’s policies, JFS turns to Jewish values of Chesed (kindness), Tzedakah

(justice) and Tikun Olam (repairing the world) and the history of the Jewish people to

guide it in serving all people within our community. We are pleased to present you

with Jewish Family Service of St. Paul’s (JFS) 2016 Annual Report. In it, you will read

about how these values are translated into programs and services which assist people

in meeting the planned and unplanned changes in their lives.

These programs and services can only be accomplished with the efforts of our

dedicated board, staff, volunteers, community partners and YOU, who share the

values that JFS represents. We express heartfelt gratitude to each of you who

generously helps us be a beacon of hope to those living in the Greater St. Paul

community. Please join us in taking pride in our accomplishments and in continuing

to create a strong and caring community for all.

Sincerely,

Mitzi Gramling

Ted Flaum

2016Annual Report

AGING AND DISABILITIES SERVICES

Albert is 78 years old and lived alone on the second floor of a rundown apartment building. Albert has several chronic conditions, including COPD (which requires constant oxygen), and diabetes. He struggled with maintaining blood sugar levels and had “black outs” resulting in falls and injuries. Although his doctor was not concerned, his JFS case manager was. She advocated for Albert with his doctor and the county. She secured skilled nursing visits and obtained a cane, pillboxes and a shower bench —

he was unable to get into his bathtub and had not bathed for months. The JFS case manager scheduled homemaking services, a personal care assistant and Meals on Wheels. Albert did not have laundry access in his building, and had not done his own laundry for over 4 months! Through his case manger’s persistence, Albert eventually found new, affordable housing, with laundry facilities, an elevator and a walk-in shower. Albert now has the services he needs to lives with dignity.

COUNSELING SERVICES

Imagine being 8-years old and believing that you were the cause of your parents’ divorce. That’s how John felt when he told his mother that he found messages on his dad’s phone to other women. What was once a seemingly perfect life was immediately shattered. John had never even seen his parents fight and he struggled with the guilt of causing their divorce. His mother brought him to JFS for counseling. Our therapist gave John a safe place to process what

happened and reassured him that he was not responsible. Through counseling, John’s parents improved their communications and learned to co-parent and John is learning to be a happy child again.

JFS DONORS 2016Recognizing donors – the people who help make it all possible.We are sincerely grateful for the endowments and donors whose generosity has helped us serve individuals and families in need.

JEWISH FAMILY SERVICE OF ST. PAUL 2016 ANNUAL REPORT

• Your Investment Changes Lives •

JFS provided more than 1,100 seniors and people with disabilities with case

management and other supportive services in

2016. Almost 10% of our clients are 90 years

of age or older.

We helped children, adults, couples, and

families by providing more than 500 counseling

sessions in 2016!

CHAPLAINCY SERVICES

JFS’s Chaplaincy Services reaches out to Jews who are unaffiliated and/or isolated from the broader Jewish Community by supporting their emotional and spiritual needs. This program helps reconnect people to their pasts, understand who they are today and learn who they could become. Our program serves lonely elders, Jewish immigrants from the former Soviet Union, people living with dementia, and others on the margin of the Jewish

community. JFS’s Community Chaplain conducted a Passover seder for Jewish inmates at the Shakopee Women’s Prison. One participant, Claire, was so moved by the experience, she broke down sobbing. “This was the first time in years that it felt like I wasn’t in prison,” she said. “Thank you.”

• Your Investment Changes Lives •

We helped more than 250 people update their resumes, hone

their interviewing skills, search for jobs and secure

employment in 2016.

EMPLOYMENT SERVICES

JFS helps families begin new chapters in their lives. Taylor is a 39-year-old single

mother struggling to provide for her teenage son. She needed to improve her

employment situation and came to JFS for help. A JFS employment specialist

worked with Taylor on creating a resume emphasizing Taylor’s strong work ethic

and people skills. She helped Taylor strengthen her

skills by conducting mock interviews and taught her

time management for conducting her job search. Taylor secured an interview through

a referral from her employment specialist. Her interview was a success and she was

offered a job as a Personal Care Assistant. She is now employed full-time with

benefits and providing for her family.

FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE

Steve has mental health issues which include paranoia. This has resulted in his being

evicted from multiple housing facilities. After one such eviction, he decided he

needed “to find a nice Jewish family that would rent him a room in their home”. He

went from synagogue to synagogue, seeking such a family. A local rabbi recognized

Steve’s mental health issue and referred him

to JFS. We intervened on Steve’s behalf with

landlords and paid his rent while we worked with Steve to find him suitable,

long-term housing. Thanks to JFS, today Steve is living in his own apartment,

where he receives support and feels safe.

JFS provided financial assistance to more than

125 individuals and families in 2016.

Irv LernerLegacy Society Member

Irv Lerner has been a JFS board member

since 2013. As he became more

knowledgeable about the programs and

services that JFS offers, he became more

involved, including co-chairing its Senior

Advisory Committee. Today, he is one of

the agency’s strongest advocates. “When I

joined the board, I really was not familiar

with most of the programs and services

that JFS offers nor their impact in the

community. Now that I am aware, I am so

impressed with what we can accomplish

to help people. I want to make sure that

JFS will continue to be a vital agency in the

community. That is why I have decided to

make a legacy gift to JFS.”

Rhoda Redleaf exemplifies

the JFS mission: Inspired by

Jewish values, JFS assists

individuals and families by

helping them build on their

strengths to develop the skills

and confidence to meet life’s

encouraged the BOND members to serve tirelessly as

volunteers to our B’yachad program, which Rhoda has

chaired or co-chaired for six years as a member of the

JFS board. This holiday gift program has brightened

the holiday season for more than 1,000 individuals and

her precious time to JFS. We look forward to her sharing

her talents with us for a long time to come.
