Holocaust Program
| The Holocaust Program at JFCS provides services to
Southern Arizona Holocaust survivors that generate hope,
build resiliency and foster dignity. We are dedicated to
providing Advocacy on behalf of Holocaust Survivors. The Holocaust Program
provides a holistic approach in meeting the needs of
Pima County’s Holocaust Survivor population. Grounded in
the belief that care of the body, mind and spirit are
essential for physical and mental well being, the
program provides Survivors with case management, group
meetings, counseling, emergency assistance funds,
assistance with Claims conference applications and
Survivor advocacy.

JFCS gratefully
acknowledges the Conference on Jewish Material Claims
Against Germany, which has generously supported social
services for Nazi victims. |

In coordination with
Tucson’s religious and secular communities, the program
seeks to enhance Survivors quality of life, while
helping them maintain their independence, dignity and
self-respect. Our philosophy, when working with
Holocaust Survivors is to respect the past while
offering new and positive experiences that will coexist
with the old.
The Conference on
Material Claims Against Germany provides much-needed
housekeeping and respite services to survivors who are
unable to perform these tasks alone. Additionally,
Holocaust survivors may qualify for
government-subsidized programs, or may need additional
services to maintain their independence in the home.
