Volunteers

While giving of their expertise, energy and hearts, volunteers at Jewish Family Service of MetroWest make a tremendous difference in the lives of our clients. All volunteers receive ongoing supervision and training to assist them in their efforts. Roles for volunteers continue to develop as the agency expands its services. Whether it is for time-limited or on-going projects, JFS volunteers assist in:

• CARE LINK - days of community-wide volunteering organized by JFS, in cooperation with synagogues, agencies and organizations. Projects foster direct connections between volunteers and individuals in need.
• PROJECT CONNECT - an ongoing program of friendly visitation/telephone reassurance to support agency clients.
• EMIGRE RESETTLEMENT & CITIZENSHIP SERVICES - provide needed help for the newly and not-so-newly arrived emigre population including the provision of pro-bono legal or medical services, tutoring, transportation, and assistance with applications for citizenship.
• SUPPORT SERVICES & SPECIAL PROJECTS - activities which benefit clients directly including administering client surveys, maintaining the agency library, office assistance and pro-bono professional services.
