On June 9, Jewish Family and Children’s Services of Northern New Jersey (JFCS) will be hosting their 14th Annual Ride to Fight Hunger. All proceeds from the event will go to support the essential social and mental health services that JFCS provides for the northern New Jersey community. The event will be held in Rockleigh, New Jersey and will include bike routes (50, 25, 10, and three miles), a guided hike, games and entertainment for the kids, and food and drinks provided throughout the day. It is always a fun-filled time for the whole family.
JFCS provides four pillars of service: mental health services, older adult services, food Insecurity services, and basic needs assistance. Through its comprehensive, holistic approach, JFCS is a safety net for the northern New Jersey community. All four pillars work together to address the unique needs of JFCS’ clients and improve their health and well-being. Available services include mental health therapy, support groups, care management for older adults, specialized services for Holocaust survivors, a kosher food pantry, career counseling, and more.
