Based in North York, Ontario, it runs a multi-service program portfolio aimed at increasing safety, supporting mental health and wellness, and reducing the effects of poverty within a framework informed by Jewish values. The organization serves individuals, children, families, and broader communities, addressing both practical needs and emotional well-being. It operates within the broader nonprofit sector of community-based services and positions itself as a resource for those seeking stability and support in challenging circumstances. In 2019, it partnered with Circle of Care to offer a program designed for the Jewish community. In 2023, reports noted the closure of its family resource centre at Promenade Mall due to staffing shortages.
