Federations Grants to Serve Holocaust Survivors, Older Traumatic Survivors | The Jewish Federations of North America Jewish Federations of North America’s Center on Holocaust Survivor Care and Institute on Aging and Trauma has announced its largest allocation in any single year -- $6.
9 million -- to support more than three dozen Jewish and non-Jewish agencies to deliver social services to tens of thousands of Holocaust survivors, diverse older adults with a history of trauma, and their family caregivers. “Caring for Holocaust survivors is a core value and deep commitment of our Jewish Federations,” said Jewish Federations of North America board chair Julie Platt.
“As we grapple with the psychological impact of the October 7th terrorist attacks, our work supporting older trauma survivors has never been more important. ” "Holocaust survivors are our teachers and our heroes,” added Shelley Rood Wernick, granddaughter of Holocaust survivors and Managing Director of the Center on Holocaust Survivor Care and Institute on Aging and Trauma at Jewish Federations of North America.
“Widespread trauma among many populations places high demand on our innovative services, and thanks to generous philanthropists and our government partners, we are able to provide care that recognizes this trauma history. ” Experts estimate as many as 90% of older Americans have a history of trauma.
Acknowledging Jewish Federations’ profound impact, the federal government has empowered Federations through funding to be the national resource center on aging and trauma. The administration has also highlighted Jewish Federations’ person-centered, trauma-informed (PCTI) approach as a model for serving all older adults and family caregivers.
PCTI care promotes trust, dignity, strength, and empowerment of all individuals by incorporating knowledge about trauma into agency programs, policies, and procedures. Jewish Federations launched this initiative in 2015. Since then, Federations have supported through this program approximately 47,010 Holocaust survivors; 15,051 older adults with a history of trauma; 21,993 professional caregivers, and 8,390 family caregivers.
The allocations support local human service agencies, nursing homes, Jewish Federations, and national groups that scale PCTI care throughout their networks. Federations are supporting organizations that serve both Jewish and non-Jewish older adults and their families with a combination of one-year and two-year grants.
In addition to direct services, Jewish Federations of North America supports intensive education and training to all grantees. Programming through these grants improves physical, cognitive, and mental health, and helps older adults and their family gain access to critical services.
The grant to the Network of Jewish Human Service Agencies (NJHSA) addresses social isolation by connecting older adults to technology, and the grant to Habitat for Humanity International provides PCTI home modifications for older adults impacted by trauma. The grant to KAVOD provides emergency homecare for Holocaust survivors in need, and grants to Jewish Federations support local services in those communities.

The Rural Health Care Program's Third Further Notice hit the Federal Register on August 31, 2026. It proposes killing cost studies, publishing an eligible services list, setting application processing deadlines, and eliminating the Healthcare Connect Fund annual report. What it conspicuously does not propose is any change to the $744.2 million cap that the whole proceeding says is under strain.
Read articleOn August 7, 2026, Judge Mary S. McElroy vacated HUD's FY2026 Continuum of Care NOFO in full, finding the agency violated the Administrative Procedure Act by skipping notice-and-comment before setting aside roughly $1.3 billion — nearly a third of CoC funding — for new projects. HUD has appealed and been denied an emergency stay. Here is what the ruling actually does to renewals, what Congress already guaranteed, and what CoC leads and subrecipients should be doing during the pause.
