Mental health is the foundation for how we think, feel, connect, and cope. When we care for our mental health, we strengthen our resilience, improve our physical well‑being, and create space for healthier relationships and clearer decision‑making. Even small daily habits can make a difference in how we show up for ourselves and others.

That’s why Ruth & Norman Rales Jewish Family Services (JFS) is launching a 31‑Day Mental Wellness Challenge Each day offers one small action that can create a powerful shift over time.

Join the challenge and make your mental health a priority this month. Be sure to post any of photos of your participation and don't forget to leave us a ❤️ in the comments!

This week, we’re celebrating someone truly special in our Ruth & Norman Rales Jewish Family Services (JFS) and JFS at Home family, Barbara Levine. Since 2016, Barbara has shared her time, compassion, and expertise with us after more than 30 years as a Registered Nurse with Memorial Healthcare System. She’s known for her incredible attention to detail, quality care, and the kindness and positivity she brings wherever she goes.

As one team member said, “Your willingness to volunteer and give so generously of yourself truly makes a difference.” Another shared, “You’re always a breath of fresh air… your dedication and generosity are appreciated beyond measure.”
From supporting long‑term care insurance billing to keeping client files in perfect order, Barbara’s presence is invaluable.

From managing long-term care insurance billing, to maintaining client files and acting as a nurse-on-call for several JFS events, Barbara's skills and commitment are immeasurable! Barbara, thank you for your heart, your generosity, and the light you bring to JFS and the JFS at Home team. We are so grateful for you!

What a memorable night at our Men’s Night Out at Eddie V’s in Boca Raton! Guests enjoyed a smoked Old Fashioned, a four-course, chef-curated dinner with wine pairings, and a sweet bananas foster finale.
We were honored to hear from FAU Football Coach, Zack Kittley, whose core value of “Be a family” beautifully echoed our mission at JFS — We Are Family — and his passion for community impact inspired all in attendance.
The evening ended on the patio with ci**rs, dessert, and meaningful connections. Best of all, this year’s event tripled in size, offering even more opportunities to engage new supporters in our work.
Thank you to our Premier Sponsor, Kogan & Di Salvo Personal Injury Law, and our generous sponsors: Eddie V’s , Southern Glazer’s Wine & Spirits , Ravitz Development Group , Financial Design Resource Group FDR Group, Inc. , Jason M. Solodkin , C.F.P. Simplitfy , Florida Blue , GEO , and Matthew Maschler , Signature Real Estate Finder.

Together, we are building something special, because at JFS, We Are Family.

The Community Mentoring Program had a fabulous time painting together on Sunday, 5/17. Everyone enjoyed lunch while discussing what they’re looking forward to this summer. We heard everything from travel, learning various new things, and going to summer camp. Afterwards, everyone began their instructor- led painting of a beach with footsteps in the sand.

As we discussed, the painting represents the summer ahead and the path they want take with the choices they make. Now complete, these paintings serve as a reminder to each mentor, mentee, and parent in attendance to follow their path and know that even if they step off, with a trusting adult, they can reset themselves back on the path they choose.

If you are interested in learning more about the Community Mentoring Program or becoming a mentor or mentee, please contact Lisa Cauff at 561-852-3329 or LisaCa@ralesjfs.org.

Thank you to the United Way of Palm Beach County and the Children's Services Council of Palm Beach County for your continued support.
