Abstract:

The author discusses the issue of paying for the services of Jewish communal welfare agencies. He classifies agencies into three groups: those who bill clients for up to 100% of costs (such as day camps, hospitals and nursing homes); those who bill for roughly 40-50% of costs (such as Jewish Community Centers and Jewish schools); and those who bill for less than 15% of costs (such as child care, family care and vocational counseling).
