Mission & Values

We take pride in what we do. Below you will find our mission, vision, and values.

 

WE PROVIDE LIFE-IMPROVING SERVICES THAT HELP THE PEOPLE OF LOS ANGELES LIVE WITH DIGNITY AND EXERCISE SELF-DETERMINATION. WE BELIEVE IN AND STRIVE FOR A MORE COMPASSIONATE LOS ANGELES WHERE NO ONE HAS TO NAVIGATE LIFE ALONE.

 

As the leading Jewish social services agency in Los Angeles, Jewish Family Service LA is a trusted and critical source of support for the Jewish community. But our work does not stop there.

Jewish values require – and the actions of JFSLA demonstrate – our commitment to serving everyone in the Los Angeles community, of all backgrounds and identities. The Jewish tradition teaches us to honor the dignity of every individual, to extend our practice of service and loving kindness for all, and to do our part to help heal the world.

Every day, Jewish Family Service LA operates according to these values. It is clear in every service and program we offer for the people of Los Angeles. Rooted in history and tradition, we strive to build an inclusive, compassionate, and just society for all.
