Using the slogan “Helping People Help Themselves,” JVS repairs the world, one person at a time; allowing our program participants to achieve the highest degree of independence and dignity. Our staff of more than 50 skilled professionals work with a diverse range of individuals in need of employment, education, corporate training, rehabilitation and other specialized services—from the unskilled single mother receiving public assistance to the entry, mid and executive level job seekers; from the sixteen-year-old high school dropout in trouble with the law to the recent college graduate; from the non-English speaking refugee to American-born adults seeking to earn their GED; from the high school freshman with autism to the corporations that are seeking training for their employees. JVS fulfills its mission each and every day by living our adopted credo: “The highest degree of charity is to take hold of persons who have been crushed . . . to find work for them and thus put them on their feet so they will not be dependent upon others.” (Moses Maimonides, 1135-1204)
