FAMILY SERVICES FOR ALL

JFS Retrospectives

Retrospectives are ways of analyzing the present in relation to the past. Over the next several weeks, until the end of year, we want to remember, reflect, and review the impact together we have made for our community. Based upon our Jewish values, our mission is to provide services for all.

So, watch out for more JFS Retrospectives to come.

Congratulations to Katie, Neyssa, and Zach who passed their licensure exams and are now Licensed Professional Counselors of Mental Health (LPCMH). As JFS Fellows and as required for licensure, they acquired over 3,000 hours of total experience including 1600 hours under the direct supervision of one or more clinical supervisors.

Did you know that according to the State of Mental Health in America 2023 Report, in Delaware, for every 340 individuals there is only one mental health care provider? The term “mental health provider” includes psychiatrists, psychologists, licensed clinical social workers, counselors, marriage and family therapists, and advanced practice nurses specializing in mental health care. The JFS Fellowship Program seeks to close the gap in providing access to mental health care.
