Letter to the Community from Jewish Family Service

Posted by Rabbi Chaim Lazaroff

 In the aftermath of Hurricane Ike, the Board and Staff of Jewish Family Service hope that you and your family are safe and well and that your home sustained no or minimal damage. 

The consequences of this, or any, natural disaster may take a toll later when things seem to be back to “normal.”  Often, extremely stressful or traumatic events have a delayed impact on children and adults.  These may include feelings of grief, loss, nervousness and sadness and may result in sleeping difficulties.  Professional counseling may be necessary or helpful.  Jewish Family Service counselors and therapists are ready to help you and/or any member of your family get through this difficult and challenging time. 

Following the devastation of Hurricane Ike, Jewish Family Service will provide:

►Counseling to individuals, children and families.

►Emergency Financial Aid.

►Appointments for new clients, without delay.

►Help with registration for FEMA.

►Senior Care Management.   

General Resources to help you secure information and assistance include:

 ►FEMA. Call 1-800-621-FEMA(3362) or online www.fema.gov to apply for disaster assistance.  FEMA will offer assistance for uninsured temporary housing needs, essential home repairs and/or other serious disaster-related expenses, such as medical and dental expenses. 

►2-1-1. Texas/United Way HELPLINE:  up-to-the-minute information about help with basic needs.

►3-1-1.  City of Houston Information and resources.

►American Red Cross, 1-800-RED CROSS(733-2767)—for shelters and assistance.

Contact us! We here to help; we want to help

Grocery is, after all, one of the most essential needs of a human being. Attractive prices, super quick delivery, an efficient and professional service is sure going to make online grocery shopping one of the best services ever! With all the major things like laptops, computer peripherals, cameras, watches and other luxury items having already taken over the online market, it was just a matter of time when the same thing would be happening with groceries too.
