| Form 990, Part III, Line 4a | caregivers of frail seniors and people with disabilities; counseling, prevention and intervention services for troubled teens; and an entire continuum of prevention and therapeutic services for individuals and families in crisis. Because the Jewish United Fund of Metropolitan Chicago and the Jewish Federation of Metropolitan Chicago are so closely linked in numerous ways (combined Board of Directors, shared professional staff, shared office space, etc.), and because JUF provides an annual, multi-million dollar allocation to the Jewish Federation, we measure and report our program and service results jointly for the combined JUF/Federation enterprise, which are summarized below: Mental Health: In the last three years, JUF has invested over $5 million in additional funds in mental health services and infrastructure, enabling our agencies to provide mental health services in record numbers. Last year, JUF agencies provided 47,000 people with an array of mental health services, including: - Direct Services: Counseling, respite, psychiatric evaluations, support groups - Prevention and Intervention: Mental health training for schools, camp counselors and staff, rabbis, agency staff and teens, technology assists for special populations. - Community Outreach and Education Expanded programs fostering mindfulness, meditation, wellness and social connections New Mental Health Projects Funded This Year: - To meet growing mental health needs among youth at Jewish summer camp, JUF is enabling JCC Chicago to add social workers at its 10 JCC Apachi Day Camp locations. - To strengthen the mental health of preschoolers who spent their formative years in the pandemic, JUF is enabling JCFS Chicago's Virginia Frank Child Development Center and the JUF Early Childhood Collaborative to team up to train teachers and coach parents of 1,800 preschoolers. - To address the local spike in mental health issues, JUF is enabling JCFS Chicago to launch a Center for Trauma and Resilience, devoted to preventing people impacted by trauma from developing more significant mental health issues while creating clinical capacity to care for those who do. - To make mental health services more accessible for low-income Jewish families in Chicago's day school community, JUF is enabling REACH and The Ark to team up place a clinician on-site at day schools without social workers, providing mental health services to 150 more children and wrap around services for their families. - To reduce behavioral problems than often accompany mental health issues in children, JUF is enabling REACH to equip local Jewish day school parents, grandparents and teachers with tools to prevent or manage challenging behavior and to reduce their own stress. - To improve mental health for parents of children with disabilities, JUF is enabling Libenu to grow its respite services for caregivers to serve 150 families per year. - To increase mental health services for older adults facing a shortage of psychologists and psychiatrists, JUF is enabling CJE SeniorLife to serve 700 more older adults. CJE will expand short-term group therapy and telehealth support groups; create an online Mental Health Toolkit; and launch initiatives to build future capacity. - To meet a variety of mental health needs, JUF is enabling Mishkan and its mental health center, Maggie's Place, to add multi-faceted mental health programming for nearly 1,000 community members, with components for expectant and new parents, children with behavioral needs and direct services for people who are struggling plus a new marketing campaign to decrease stigma and increase awareness of mental health resources.
