Inclusive Education. Stronger Community.

JCAS enables Jewish children with extra needs to attend mainstream Jewish schools. Through our teacher aide program, the children we support enjoy the same opportunities as other children, improving learning outcomes and social inclusion.

The benefits of inclusion ripple outward: children grow in confidence and independence, schools become more compassionate and accommodating, and the community celebrates the diversity that strengthens us all.

JCAS aims to be a catalyst for change, shaping a future where every Jewish child, regardless of ability, is embraced, valued and empowered.

On January 29 2026, the JCAS community came together for our Annual Assistants’ Training Day. We were thrilled to host 141 dedicated teacher assistants for a day centered on professional growth and collaboration. From high-energy networking sessions to deep-dive discussions, our assistants spent the day exchanging innovative ideas and learning new strategies to better support our students. Watch the video to see the power of our collective expertise in action!

At JCAS, we believe that when our assistants grow, our students thrive.
