MESSAGE FROM LEADERSHIP
Jewish Family Service Agency has continuously evolved throughout its 77 years of
existence to meet the changing times and needs of our community.
From its early beginnings as a welfare agency, helping to settle immigrants,
the JFSA of today is so much more. Our vast array of programs and services
help address challenges that arise from the trends that we are seeing – an aging
population that requires a continuum of care; the increase in youth who are atrisk; the ever increasing cost of living that is impacting opportunities for gainful
employment and creating difficulties for individuals and families to survive.
At JFSA, we have much to be grateful for. Our ability to be a resource for the community
rests heavily on the compassion, unwavering commitment and goodwill of our
volunteers, donors, funders, staff and community partners. Whether it is providing
support to strengthen existing programs, championing the development of new ones,
helping to lay the foundation for growth, or ensuring we have the resources to carry
out our mission. Each and every one of us fulfills a role, a need, a purpose, and we are
all working towards something much greater than any of us alone.
Over the past year, new opportunities for JFSA – such as providing social services
at JHUB in Richmond, launching the Chill Chat Program for Youth Peer Support,
expanding Home Support services to the Kerrisdale-Oakridge-Marpole area,
creating a Mental Health Outreach Peer Support Group – has allowed us, and will
2
continue to allow us, to help more people.
These initiatives all came to fruition due to
the commitment and involvement of many.
As the late anthropologist, Margaret Mead
said, “Never underestimate the power
of a small group of committed people to
change the world. In fact, it is the only
thing that ever has.”
Our ability to be a
resource for the community
rests heavily on the
compassion, unwavering
commitment and goodwill
of our volunteers, donors,
funders, staff and
community partners.
And towards our future ... JFSA is in
process of finalizing a three year strategic
plan, that will guide us on the next
phase of this ongoing journey. Over the
last several months, Board and staff
have been gathering information from
stakeholder groups, conducting an environmental scan, reviewing our internal
processes, identifying areas of priority, and developing our action plan. We thank
everyone who participated in the process and look forward to completing the plan
by the end of August. We will be sharing our vision and future directions with the
community very soon. We hope you enjoy this edition of Family Matters which highlights and celebrates
many achievements from the past year. Thank you for your on-going support.

COUNSELLING
Opening Up to Each Other: Peer support for Jewish Youth
In 2013, when the Vancouver
Jewish Community Youth-at-Risk
Committee distributed a survey
to Jewish youth in the Lower
Mainland, the survey uncovered
the need for youth to have an
informal community-wide peersupport network.
This past year, with the support
of a grant from the Jewish
Community Foundation, JFSA and
the JCC launched a new initiative
called Chill Chat, a Peer support
program for Jewish youth. 12 Mentors aged 17-21 were
recruited through King David High School, Hillel and UBC. They were trained in
early 2014 by Alan Stamp, Clinical Director of JFSA and by Stephanie Rabin, Youth
Coordinator of the JCC. Training covered topics such as confidentiality, active listening,
understanding boundaries and knowing when to refer to other resources when there is
a perceived elevation of risk. Mentors were assigned Mentees, 12-19 years of age, and
to-date, eight Mentees have been beneficiaries of this program. Mentors and mentees meet for at least one hour every two weeks, during which they
have the freedom to choose their own constructive activities. The pairs often go
bowling, go for pizza, play sports or take a walk together. As the student-chosen name
suggests, they spend time, relax, and share with each other.
“The survey showed that kids are more likely to open up to other young people,” said
Alan Stamp, Clinical Director of the Program. “Chill Chat is like Big Brothers, except it is
peer-to-peer. There is no pressure, like friendship and has been a very rewarding time
for both the Mentee and the Mentor.”
Chill Chat resumes in the Fall. For more information please contact Alan Stamp,
[email protected] or 604.257.5151.

SENIORS
The Growth of JFSA’s
Home Support Program
In 2002, when provincial government
cutbacks significantly decreased seniors’
access to non-medical care services,
many seniors and their families were left
unsupported. Seniors and their families had
no choice but to pay out-of-pocket for care.
Those unable to afford to pay had to rely on
their families or go without.
JFSA responded in 2003 by developing a
sliding fee scale Home Support Program
6
that made our services accessible to all
income levels for Jewish seniors (65+). Clients pay from $11 – $24. Over the
years, funders have included Vancouver
Coastal Health SMART Fund, The
Phylliss and Irving Snider Foundation,
The Diamond Foundation, The Jewish
Federation of Greater Vancouver and
private donors.
SENIORS
Until 2013, our service was entirely
within the Jewish Community. In
2013 we were encouraged to expand
our successful social enterprise. We
received a grant for expansion from
the Vancity Foundation for supervisory
staff and contribution towards fixed
costs, and applied for and received a
grant from the Kaatza Foundation, a
local private family foundation. Their
funds contributed to subsidy for low
income clients. We chose the West End
to pilot expansion. that offers a variety of services, including
Home Support, to help seniors with
simple day-to-day tasks so that they can
continue to live independently in their
own homes and remain connected to
their communities. Our Home Support
Program once again expanded to include
service to this area in early 2014.
The largest growth has been within the
Jewish community. Each year, existing
clients require more care. We provide
clients as little as four hours a month, to
Home Support today,
employs 53 workers.
We serve 192 seniors each
month. We have grown an
average of 10% a year in
billable hours and expect this
trend to continue into 2015. Due to our reputation, late last year,
we were approached by United Way to
become the lead agency for the Better
at Home Program in the KerrisdaleOakridge–Marpole area. Funded by
the government, managed by United
Way, and offered through partnering
agencies, Better at Home is a program
24/7 care. Seniors that needed weekly
cleaning and grocery shopping weekly
five years ago, may now need assistance
with showering, meal preparation,
accompaniment to appointments as well
as cleaning help.

Give More to JFSA Without Using
Your Credit Card or Writing a Cheque
Are you looking for
a way to reduce your
tax bill for 2014 and
make a meaningful
donation to JFSA,
consider a gift of
securities.
Selling an appreciated stock or mutual fund
will require you to pay tax on 50 per cent
of the capital gain. However, donating the
appreciated securities to charity as a gift-inkind, will help you eliminate this requirement.
You will remove an unneeded asset from
your portfolio, JFSA will issue you a
charitable tax receipt for the fair market
value of the securities, and most importantly
you will feel satisfaction in seeing your
donation put to good use!

The Impact of JHub on JFSA
In March, JHub Richmond opened its
doors to serve as a resource for community
organizations to improve access of social
services and programs offered to community
members. Feedback from JFSA clients has
been tremendously positive.
our existing clients who need that
extra support, to build our presence in
the community, and it will open our
doors to help those who may otherwise
not have been able to make the trip
to Vancouver.”
“The senior clients that we have seen have
expressed their gratitude to be able to go to
the “Hub”. Parking is free, and accessible
by bus. When you’re a senior, it makes a
huge difference. Now 6-8 of our clients can
also easily pick up their Food Bank parcels
and vouchers at the location,” says Jacqui
Sankoff, Seniors Outreach Counsellor.
JFSA is privileged to work with other
community partners, such as Kehila,
RJDS, Jewish Seniors’ Alliance, and
especially the Jewish Federation on this
very important initiative. This project
has been, from its inception about
better serving our children, youth and
families and in doing so, helping to
ensure a vibrant Jewish community.
Seniors couselling, information and referral
services, is only one type of service that
JFSA offers at this new location. Clinical
counselling for individuals, couples and
families, Resettlement counselling and
referral for new comers and financial aid
assessment are all available as well.
JHub Steering Committee member, and
JFSA Board member, Frieda Miller says “We
are so fortunate to have this space available
to us without incurring additional costs to
the agency. Essentially the space is a satellite
office for JFSA. It allows us to improve on
the delivery of our programs and services to

CLIENT OUTCOMES
Stories of Success
When Arnold first moved to
Vancouver in 2000, he needed
help finding housing and work
and JFSA helped him establish
a life in his new city. Years later,
with a positive memory of
his experiences with JFSA, he
reached out to the agency again
during his time of need.
In 2012, at the age of 46, Arnold
had reached a low point his
professional and personal life.
Aware that he was going to be
fired from his job, and facing a
divorce from his wife of 7 years,
he suffered from low self-esteem,
and feelings of inadequacy and
hopelessness. Arnold needed
help, and he decided to make
three critical decisions: he joined
a men’s support group, he
began seeing a therapist, and he
contacted JFSA.
Working with his employment
counsellor at JFSA, Arnold
developed a plan to address his
impending firing. They prepared
a proposal for Arnold’s boss,
an exit strategy, whereby he
would be allowed to resign, and
to leave with dignity. His boss
agreed, accepted the resignation
letter, and agreed to provide an
employment reference, as well.
11
Shortly after resigning, Arnold, with the
help of his counsellor took the positive,
necessary steps to reestablish his career.
He said yes to every opportunity, and
worked diligently to further his skillset.
Arnold attended JFSA employment
workshops, practiced and polished
his interview skills, and conducted
several informational interviews, which
proved to be very useful. Arnold’s
counsellor encouraged him to go after
his “dream jobs,” jobs he would love,
but didn’t feel confident enough to
apply for. But he did apply, and was
hired by a not-for-profit organization in
Hawaii that focuses on early childhood
development.
Esther first came to JFSA,
emotionally fragile, vulnerable and
in need of care. Originally from
Poland, she is a child survivor of the
Holocaust. She immigrated to Canada
in the 1960s.
At the age of 84, she found herself
living alone in Vancouver without a
network of support. Her daughter,
who lives in California, kept in touch
with her frequently, but was not able
to offer financial support and physical
assistance. Isolated and in need of
help, she had anxiety and depression.
Concerned for her well-being, her
friend referred her to JFSA. Her
JFSA case worker, after assessing
her condition, immediately placed
her on the food voucher program
to supplement her groceries and
household needs. After several
months, her case worker assisted
her in completing her application for
Article 2 Funding from the Claims
Conference and her application was
a success. Now monthly she receives
a small amount of compensation that
makes a meaningful difference to her
monthly budget.
His JFSA counsellor stayed in contact
and helped Arnold stay focused and
positive during a difficult first few
months in Hawaii. Now, he earns well
above state-average salary, bicycles to
work, and has a comprehensive benefits
package, too. After some dark years,
Arnold is living his dream.
Arnold
Periodically, she continues to receive
visits from her case worker, who
assesses her needs and sees what
can be done to help her manage her
day to day activities and to remain
comfortable in her home. Recently
she even accessed JFSA’s Home
Support services.
“ I accomplished so much in a
short period of time because
I asked for help and you were
there. Thank you for giving me
hope, encouragement and for
supporting me during such a
difficult moment in my life.”

Esther
Esther’s daughter says, “my mom is very touched and
thank ful for the personal attention she has received
and I am grateful to know that JFSA is her family
when I cannot be there.”

VOLUNTEER IN THE SPOTLIGHT
Paying it Forward:
Sara Ciacci
Sara Ciacci’s memories and
association with JFSA goes
back more than 80 years.
It was the depression era before WW2 and
like a number of families in our then small
Jewish community, her mother and two
sisters needed help. Sara recalls the first day
a Social Worker, Theresa Blumberg, came
to her home and found a reason to look in
the food pantry. From then on, JFSA would
be there to provide support.
Miss Blumberg who made sure that I had
proper shoes and school supplies. My only
possession from childhood is a book she
gave me on my 11th birthday inscribed “To
my Dear Sarah”. The Children’s Treasure
Book with beautiful colour plates would
later be read by Sara’s sons, grandchildren
and great granddaughter.
Although few memories remain of those
childhood days, Sara says, “I can still see the
large galvanized steel container that arrived
every Friday, along with butter and eggs,
courtesy of the Jewish Family Service.”
Sara’s adult association with the Jewish
Food Bank started in 1984 as member of
B’nai B’rith Women’s Centennial Chapter
(now called Jewish Women InternationalB.C.). That year, Jean Cohen, z’l, then
President of the Chapter, was helping a
Jewish Senior. When she asked about why
there was cat food in the cupboard, when
“Theresa found time to visit me during
the 18 months that I was in the Children’s
Preventorium for tuberculosis. It was

and seniors, are able to access nutritious

she didn’t have a cat, the senior explained
that it was less expensive than Tuna.
B’nai B’rith Women’s Centennial and
JFSA started the Jewish Food Bank to
help feed those who are hungry in the
community. Today the Jewish Food
Bank is co-funded by both organizations
and many generous donors from the
community.
At JFSA’s AGM last December, Sara
was the recipient of the Paula Lenga
Award for exemplary volunteer service.
The Paula Lenga Award is given to an
ordinary person who does extraordinary
things through volunteering at JFSA. JFSA
and the community are grateful to have
Sara as a friend and a champion for our
community’s efforts to address the issue
of poverty and alleviate hunger.
For the last 30 years, Sara, has been
spearheading JWI-BC’s fundraising efforts
and the Jewish Food Bank has been her
top priority. She has worked tirelessly to
raise money, promoted Food Bank needs,
and written grants, year after year to
