Here are general COVID-19 resources:

The Miami Jewish Abilities Alliance and the Greater Miami Jewish Federation continues to prioritize the health and safety of the community. In an effort to serve the entire community throughout the COVID-19 crisis we will post information on this page as well as the JewishMiami.org page. Please review the resources below, the Resources tab and the tab to Virtual Events which will take you to our Calendar.

JewishMiami.org also offers a central online location where you can find opportunities to stay connected, volunteer activities, updates on community events and information on where to turn if you or someone you know is in need of assistance.

Please see the Resources drop down under COVID-19 for resources specific to the special needs community.
