"Ezra" means help in Hebrew.
When it's easy to get, that means everything!
THE EZRA NETWORK
Social services as well as employment and legal advice all are provided to STS members – free of charge – through our participation in The Ezra Network, an initiative of The Jewish Federation of Greater Los Angeles in partnership with Jewish Family Service, Bet Tzedek Legal Services and JVS SoCal (formerly known as Jewish Vocational Service).
The Ezra Network makes available to the STS Community, as well as to non-members living in the area, the services of a social worker, a job counselor, and a lawyer. What you discuss with these professionals is strictly confidential.
The many issues that Ezra Network professionals can help you with include:
• Aging Parents (first steps, finding good home help, searching board and care facilities)
• Appealing Disability Claims
• Children/Adults with Special Needs
• Divorce and Family Issues
• Domestic Violence Resources
• Drugs and Alcohol Addiction Resources
• Family Members with Mental Illness
• Home Foreclosure/ Eviction
• Bankruptcy
• Advance Care Planning Directives
• Support Groups
• Unemployment/ Networking and Job Search-Related Workshops
