Safe, welcoming, and inclusive.
Jewish Family Services provides a safe, welcoming, and inclusive environment for people who identify as LGBTQ. We are committed to human-centered values which affirm all sexual orientations, gender identities, and gender expressions.
OUR SUPPORT AND PROGRAMS
Mental Health
JFS provides LGBTQ-inclusive outpatient counseling to individuals and families. Areas of focus include sexual orientation, gender identity, coming out, family conflict, bullying, anxiety, and depression, among others.
Older Adult Services
Society’s view and acceptance of LGBTQ people is changing, but for some older adults, the fear and social stigma they experienced has disrupted their lives, their connections with their families, and opportunities to earn and save for retirement. JFS is here with comprehensive and compassionate care to help LGBTQ older adults live healthy, independent, and authentic lives.
KesherKC
KesherKC offers individuals and families of all types help with immediate food needs and supportive services toward a more secure future. Services include a full-service food pantry, social work, employment or financial coaching, and connections to helpful community resources.
NON-DISCRIMINATION POLICY
Clients of Jewish Family Services have a right to be treated with dignity and respect, free of all discrimination, including that which is based on race, color, religion, gender, language, national origin, ancestry, age, disability, marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, citizenship, or immigration status. We will make every reasonable accommodation to ensure your access to our programs and services.
