U.S. Senator Andy Kim visited Agudath Israel of New Jersey in Lakewood this week to meet with organization leaders and learn more about two of its key community initiatives serving vulnerable families.

During the visit, Senator Kim received an overview of the Zahav program, which provides support and resources for individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease and dementia, as well as the Yahalom program, which assists children with special needs and their families.

“The work they are doing is critical,” Senator Kim said following the visit. “From helping families navigate resources to building community for people in need, they are an inspiring reminder that we are never alone.”

The visit highlighted the organization’s ongoing efforts to provide essential services, guidance, and community support to families across New Jersey facing some of life’s most challenging circumstances.
