Community Services

Strengthening our community is what we are about. Our varied and diverse community programs provide support for individuals during all stages of life, from children to senior citizens. Gulf Coast JFCS community programs are open and accessible to all, though certain programs require participants to meet eligibility requirements or pay a fee.

Within our community services, our behavioral health services has a number of initiatives, including residential and intervention programs. Each are developed to address the unique needs of individuals who are working to overcome substance abuse, to manage mental health, or to gain control of debilitating behaviors which prevent them from living independent and productive lives. Services are provided onsite in residential facilities, through home or school visits, or in our offices, according to the need and level of support required.
