REACH (Resources for Educational Achievement and Health)

At REACH, we partner with schools in the Chicagoland area to ensure every child can attend the Jewish day school of their choice. We do this by providing JUF-affiliated Jewish day schools with the tools to meet the needs of the whole child, including their academic, social-emotional and health needs. Our goal is that children with a wide range of learning styles, abilities, challenges and special needs can access a meaningful Jewish education that is reflective of their families’ values. By weaving together existing resources and services, establishing new systems and protocols, delivering a range of assessment and consultation services, and providing comprehensive teacher training, REACH works to meet students’ educational, emotional, and health needs in the schools their families have selected.
