Disaster Response

We understand the long-term impact of a disaster. That's why Alexander Jewish Family Service provides assistance and long-term recovery case management after a catastrophic event. We partner with other community groups who offer rescue and early-stage relief to provide longer-term assistance, working to navigate the details of your journey to stabilization and recovery.
