Mr. Speaker, I rise in recognition of the Jewish Community Services of South Florida, an organization that is committed in lending a hand to those members of our society who need it the most. Through its many programs, such as mental health counseling, homelessness prevention, and assistance to those with developmental disabilities, JCS is dedicated to bringing aid and smiles and providing the necessary care for those in need. Since its founding in 1920, this organization has not strayed from its clear goals to improve the quality of life for families in our south Florida community. The Jewish Community Services of South Florida will be delivering its 10,000th Rosh Hashanah holiday basket to homebound seniors, many living at or below the poverty level. Mr. Speaker, I am truly honored to recognize this organization's mission, and to JCS I say mazel tov on a job well done. ____________________
