We’re thrilled to share that Enbridge Gas Utah, Wyoming and Idaho has awarded JFS a community investment grant supporting the Alex & Sally Lebwohl Food Pantry and Emergency Financial Assistance programs.

From January–September 2026:
• 30,599 individuals accessed our food pantry - 35% of whom were children.
• $117,463 in emergency financial assistance helped individuals and families facing short-term hardship with rent, utilities, transportation, medical expenses, and other urgent needs.

Thank you, Enbridge, for Fueling Futures by investing in our community and supporting JFS as we provide essential resources to our neighbors when they need them most.

We’re also grateful to all of the organizations that support JFS and make this work possible. You can view these supporters on our website or click in the comments for the links.

Putting off therapy because of the cost? You’re not alone—and you have options.

At Jewish Family Service, we believe mental health care should be accessible to everyone. We accept Medicaid and other insurance plans, which may mean little to no out-of-pocket cost depending on your coverage.

Not sure what your options are? Start with a free 15-minute consultation. We’ll help you understand your options and find a path to affordable care.

Reach out today through the link in the comments and take the first step toward feeling better.
