Jewish Family Service – Margate City

Very helpful Services!!! The staff are very educated and professional. I would recommend this agency to anyone in need of assistance. 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏

I I am going through a hard time. I reached out to Jewish family services for support per referral called the access center three times and left messages. On my fourth attempt, I finally spoke to somebody who… transferred me to a supervisor. I left a message for the supervisor who did not return my call. I called the access center for the fifth time asked to speak to a supervisor. I left a message for another supervisor. Finally, I drove to one of the counseling centers. I was advised to fill out a form and somebody will call me. It’s been three weeks, two supervisors, six phone calls, and an in person visit. The only response I got is “we are very busy.” Exactly what I needed when I’m in a hard spot in my life and I reach out for help only for Jewish family services to tell me they’re too busy to even return my call for help. After all of that I don’t I want your services . if that’s an example of how you serve, keep it to yourself. obviously you are keeping it to yourself. Imagine what it takes for a person to reach out for help only to be told. You’re too busy five phone calls two supervisors and in person visit not like I didn’t try. JFS you should be ashamed

I spoke to the lady over the phone made a appointment

Thank you for such compassionate service to our community. Jewish Family Service is very worthy of donations. They use all that they have to minister to others.

This organization despite accepting my insurance and taking new patients told me I had to wait at least six months for an appointment because my insurance (that I pay for) is through Medicare...... Imagine telling an… elderly disabled person reaching out for mental health help to tough it out for 6 months. Cruel and frankly, discriminatory behavior from an organization that prides itself on inclusivity

It is so sad they make people get on medication to get help with housing so if you don’t take the medication you don’t get no help with housing and it’s sad because people don’t even need medication then they give you… the run around it’s sad I wonder how much they get paid for each person they put on medication

If you want your medical records messed up come here.. they'll add stuff that you don't even do like go to the gym . They won't even try to fix it .. they'll call and blame you .. for their doctors error.

Why does nobody from Jewish Family services never responds to anybody reviews on here?

These offices that pretend to help people and/or the community are complete garbage. Incompetent and with little to no humanity. I sought help at this place, and instead of waiting for someone to deign to answer my… call, when they finally did, they told me they couldn't help me because the incompetent staff doesn't have anyone who speaks Spanish. … If they approved my comment, I'd give it zero stars. Thanks for nothing, Jewish Family 👎

From the beginning of our conversation the woman I spoke to seemed like she didn't want to do a thing. I explained to her I needed help with snaps she said I have to go to the county for that. Then I explained I need… help with housing. She asked me if I was in the verge of being homeless, I explained Iam I just got out of rehab and I'm in sober living without a job. Then went on a rant why she can't help me so I just hung up the phone. Do better !

I am an ex-soldier with a confirmed diagnosis and this place did nothing to connect me with treatment or aid. This place should be closed and sued for making this worse!!!!!

The therapists are unprofessional and honestly do not seem to care enough about what I’m talking about. I have not received the therapy or services I was under the impression I would receive. It’s more of a friend chat… then speaking to a professional therapist to give you tools or anything to help manage your mental health. Waste of time and expectations.

These people saved my life no question about that.very professional I don't see how anybody could say anything bad about them

Try reporting a local homeless person in City told them the name address and everything they did not care they all they cared about was me leaving a message and intake there's no one there to actually take your concern… or actually track your concern with and they act like they're helping but I really doubt it Left you messages still never got a phone call back or anything I think this business ororgan

It was nice with JFS because they have professional social workers. They make sure that you are ok, and they have a personable quality to them that reaps integrated benefits. I left one star out because they change out… case managers and discharge quickly.

I had been referred to this organization (by the court)for the homelessness prev program ...due to a medical issue I had been dealing with, I had become a few months behind...Selena who was very short and rude with me,… blamed everything on intake (misinformation) and when I addressed the attitude she was giving me she blamed the guidelines... For reasons I still don't know-I felt it was necessary for ME to apologize to her for causing her to give me an attitude... This is honestly a last resort for many people like myself and with that in mind I think the "bedside manner" needs to be improved with Selena... I spoke with the IRS and DMV today and they were both more pleasant... I'm awaiting a supervisor's call ...hopefully this can be addressed... It's unacceptable that I've been upset for over an hour because of how I was treated. I do not expect anyone to break their protocol but we had discussed it three times previously so it would have been great to know this in advance not after three phone calls and having the same exact information today she tells me I'm not qualified "guidelines"

Operator was the rudest person and nobody's called me back at all. Hope they're having the day they deserve 🤷🏻‍♀️

This place is horrible!!!! no one wants to answer there phone at all and will send you straight to voice mail and you could leave a voicemail and no one will get back to you for days!!!!! people are desperate for help… and they don't take it serious!!! These people should be ashamed of them self's.

Very professional. Highly recommend

Wonderful experience for both my boys age 9 and 12 with very kind and helpful therapists.

This is an awsome organization Susan and Steve are the most helpful kind hearted people I have ever met who helped me in ways i never thought possible from people who understand because they have been there thank you to… both Susan and Steve for all your help who went above and beyond there jobs i highly recommend this place if you really want the help and ready to pick yourself back up thank you again guys you have my deepest respect

They helped me with my depression a lot.😊 One thing I don't like about them is that one time I asked for a weekly appointment and they didn't have a weekly appointment available until the next month.🤔📅 And I think… they're understaffed.🤔🏢

The WORST experience ever. Took my Daughter there so she can get help working out tragedy’s that she has been through and instead of listening..this lady tries to commit her! They showed no concern for my elderly Father… or my own health issues, and absolutely no concern for what they were putting my Daughter through. When I tried to get a Supervisor, I was given the runaround for 2 hours.Unprofessional, Uncaring and Disrespectful.
