Jewish Community Services and Programs (JCSP)

There's no end to the good we can do. 

Jewish Community Services is the social services division of the Jewish Federation of Northwest Indiana.

Staff and volunteers work together to provide everything from assisting those in need with food, shelter, and utilities to providing weekly hot lunch and entertainment for senior citizens, group outings for active adults and vibrant youth events and social services opportunities.

We service the needs of every age group. Our Prime Timers offers active adults fun, and sometimes educational, outings. Adult Friendship Club offers freshly prepared luncheons and entertainment on Monday and Wednesday each week. Teens connect to social services and social events with our NOAR and ATID youth groups. JCS operates year-round daily programs for children ages 2 to 12 through K'Ton Ton Early Childhood Programs and JCY Day Camp.
