Gen Z is turning to TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram for mental health information more than almost any other source — which makes sense, and also means a lot of misinformation gets mixed in with the good advice.

If a video convinced you something's wrong (or right) with your mental health, a licensed clinician is still the best next step to sort out what's real. See how we can help: https://jewishboard.org/how-we-can-help/

Organizations like UJA-Federation of New York support critical programs across The Jewish Board, including our homeless prevention program, which proudly helps New Yorkers like Janice get back on track. Thank you for your support!

For Janice — and other low-income New Yorkers — one unexpected setback can mean having to choose between paying rent and buying groceries.

Through our partner The Jewish Board's homeless prevention program, emergency support helps people like Janice stay in their homes and regain stability.

Meet Carole, a Direct Support Professional at The Jewish Board for more than 20 years!

Carole supports the young men of our M’Lochim residential program, and she says the best part of her job is simple: how much she loves the residents. She learned how to care for others from her grandmother in Jamaica 🇯🇲, and she’s carried that spirit into her work ever since.

Thank you, Carole, for everything you do. 🧡 Read her story: https://jewishboard.org/careers/meet-our-staff/carole-dsp/
