Jewish Big Brothers Big Sisters (JBBBS) builds and sustains life-changing relationships that reduce isolation and create connection. Guided by Jewish values and clinical expertise, our
mentorship and
friendship programs bring together children, adults with disabilities, and volunteers of all backgrounds to form bonds that inspire confidence, resilience, and belonging.

Volunteers are at the heart of this work. Each year, more than 400 volunteers participate in JBBBS programs, receiving training, clinical support, and opportunities to grow.
JBBBS supports hundreds of matches that help participants feel seen, supported, and part of something larger than themselves. Through one-to-one mentorship and inclusive community programming, we empower individuals to develop, give back, and strengthen the caring community we all share. These connections have a lasting impact, changing lives and building belonging across generations.
