“People Helping People”

The Jewish House is a true example of “people helping people”. At Jewish House we don’t just say our motto, we are our motto.

The Jewish House is a safe haven open to any member of the public in need. We assist in a wide range of circumstances, ranging from someone requiring a counselling session to someone requiring a bed and a roof over their head. Whatever the case is, when a person is in need of help and on the edge of despair, the Jewish House is there to provide food, shelter, counselling, jobs searching and telephone counselling.

 

The Jewish House can help by:

  • Providing crisis accommodation
  • Telephone counselling 24/7
  • Providing bulk billing counselling sessions
  • Giving pastoral care
  • Organising crisis prevention talks and lectures such on relationships and healthy living
  • Providing specialised financial counselling
  • Visiting hospitals and other institutions

The Jewish House is a leader in crisis management. Its caring approach, whereby a number of services are combined in a unique way for each client, is admired by many organisations and its approach has ensured a very high success rate in assisting people to rebuild their lives after a major crisis.

Whether you are a client or a volunteer wondering how to help, you can be part of the Jewish House process of people helping people.
