AUDIO: Policy priorities, funding woes...
Federation agencies working in the health and human services
arena—including CJE SeniorLife, Jewish Community Center, Jewish Child
and Family Services, Jewish Vocational Service, and Mount Sinai Hospital
Medical Center—are working hard to fulfill their caring missions at a
time of ever more stringent funding, especially from the State of
Illinois. At the February 7 meeting of the Jewish Federation’s
Government Affairs Committee, representatives from those agencies
outlined their policy priorities—and funding woes—in start and
compelling terms.
