Jewish Family Service San Diego

Organization Description

Jewish Family Service is a people-centered, impact-driven organization working to create a stronger, healthier community where everyone can thrive. Founded in 1918, today JFS is considered one of San Diego’s most impactful nonprofit human services agencies, providing compassionate care and supportive services to more than 70,000 people every year. Our diverse network of staff, volunteers, supporters, and community partners are committed to the pursuit of one shared goal: helping individuals and families in our community move forward.

Health & Safety

Some volunteer roles may require students to participate in their volunteer role on the CSU San Marcos campus. JFS staff will likely not be on campus for the majority of the student's volunteer time for on-campus opportunities. If this is the case, JFS staff will be reachable by telephone or email while the student is volunteering. For all volunteer opportunities at the JFS campus students will have staff supervision more than 50% of the time.
