INTEGRITY. COMPASSION. RESPECT.

Jewish Family Service of Atlantic County (JFS) assists families, children, adults, and seniors of Atlantic and Cape May counties to live their best and most productive lives. We help people with food, housing, and job-related insecurities. We are inclusive and provide counseling, lifelines, and essential services to anyone in need. Our aim now is the same as it was when the agency was founded nearly a century ago:  to help those who need help.

In July 2022, JFS, Katz JCC, and Jewish Federation of Atlantic & Cape May Counties had the privilege of welcoming Philadelphia Eagles legend Lane Johnson for a candid conversation about mental health. Introduced by Jess Kane Berman, Lane spoke openly about his own experiences with anxiety and depression and the importance of seeking support.

This week, as Lane announced his retirement from the NFL to prioritize his mental health and spend more time with his family, we’re reminded of the courage it takes to put your well-being first. Congratulations on an incredible career, Lane, and thank you for reminding us that strength extends far beyond the football field.
