Financial Care Management

We consider finances when we talk about care management

Jewish Family and Children’s Service of Greater Philadelphia provides a full range of care management services—and financial support is a component. Our goal is always to help our clients become financially stable and self-sufficient. Knowing that needs will be met is satisfying, both emotionally and physically. Our thoughtful and comprehensive approach includes several phases.

Assessment

We take a comprehensive look at a client’s financial situation, including an income and expense analysis; we identify community and public benefits that may be applicable.

Plan

We create a plan for the individual, developing a budget with specific recommendations on how to maximize income and decrease expenses.

Implement

We provide our clients with the help and guidance they need to implement their financial plan by:

• Guiding and helping with appropriate applications
• Following up with agencies
• Advocating on behalf of clients as they navigate through the system
• Linking clients to credit counseling
• Helping clients obtain necessary documentation for benefits

Communication

We develop an ongoing relationship with clients and regularly re-evaluate their progress.
