About
Jewish Care

For over 160 years, Jewish Care has been making a difference.

Touching over 30,000 lives each year, we help individuals and families in the Victorian Jewish community receive the support they need to meet the challenges they face.

We are guided by our core values of mishpacha, derech eretz, chessed and tzedakah - family, respect, kindness and charity - to support and enhance the wellbeing of the Jewish community of Victoria.

At Jewish Care we provide financial, individual and family counselling, housing and recruitment services, residential aged care, support for older people living at home and services for adults and children with a disability.
