Our colleagues at
Hillel International have reached out to NJHSA to find ways to work together during this period of incredible disruption.
To address the needs of college and university students who now find themselves at home, instead of on their campuses, Hillel has established a
Hillel@Home site; an online forum, updated in real time, to provide students with opportunities to connect with their local Jewish communities and to receive support services from the Jewish community as well.
Some initial suggestions for a partnership with NJHSA member agencies include:
- Listing your agency as a referral source on Hillel@Home for virtual volunteering for Hillel students (i.e. making calls to Holocaust Survivors, meal drop offs where possible and appropriate, etc.), and
- Listing your agency a source to offer support to students for students seeking personal support (vocational services/resume support, mental health counseling)
Should you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to
Reuben Rotman at NJHSA.
