JBBBS of Greater Boston

With support from the DKP, the JBBBS of Greater Boston paved the way for a Jewish Big Brother and Big Sister program in Dnepropetrovsk. The program is designed to help youngsters and their families cope with the realities of absentee parents and substance abuse.  A member of the Dnepropetrovsk Jewish community heads the effort and works with JBBBS staff and lay leaders to learn both the practical ways to make matches between the big brothers and big sisters, and to understand the clinical aspects of the program.  The program has grown to nearly 60 matches between “bigs” and “littles” in Dnepropetrovsk.
