HADASSAH, the Women's Zionist Organization of America, was founded in 1912 by Henrietta Szold. Since its inception, Hadassah has remained unwavering in its devotion to Judaism, Zionism, and American ideals.

As the largest volunteer organization and the largest women's organization in America, Hadassah is committed to strengthening the unity of the Jewish people. In Israel, we accomplish this through progressive healthcare, education, youth institutions, volunteerism, and land reclamation. In the U.S. we reach our goals through Jewish and Zionist education programs, Zionist Youth programs, and health awareness programs, as well as by advocating for issues of importance to women and to the American Jewish community.

With support from the Federation and United Jewish Communities, Jewish Family Service is able to offer a variety of needed services in the Greater Baton Rouge community.

Currently much of JFS’s work focuses on older adults because of the demographics of our community. However, JFS also provides services to children and younger adults. Services provided may include referral to another agency when it is more appropriate for the client.
