This is What Essential Looks Like

Due to our current economic and health crisis, our neighbors are in need now more than ever before. In comparison to other cities, unemployment rates are higher in Philadelphia, and many are struggling to get back to work. But when Philly gets knocked down, we work together to get back up again.

Let's Get to Work

JEVS is committed to helping our community members find job support and employment, especially in challenging times like these. This includes offering education and career services for our young adults, assisting with employment for people with disabilities, and other forms of support.

But all of the essential work we’ve done, and the support provided to our Philadelphia neighbors could not have been possible without you. Your gift can continue to help us support the 25,000 clients we serve every year, especially in light of this unprecedented crisis.
