Visits by Volunteers & Rabbinic Interns
Volunteer Vistors: Those in our Jewish community who are hospitalized, homebound, or live in skilled care communities look forward to caring, friendly visits from volunteers with Jewish Visiting Initiative: The Bikur Cholim Project of Jewish Family Service.
Rabbinic Interns: But sometimes more than a social visit is needed. Through the Pastoral Care Program, a collaboration of Jewish Family Service and Hebrew Union College, a Rabbinic student intern will visit the homebound and isolated who are not affiliated with a congregation.
To volunteer or to schedule a visit, call us at 513-469-1188. | |
