TAGLIT: Enriching lives for a better community by Emily Malin Director of Special Needs Services What community means to me is hard to put into words. It is more of a warm, happy feeling when I am at The J. I have a feeling of belonging and know that I am a part of something bigger. Everyone is supportive of one another and it is sustained by each individual making their own contribution to the community. I asked members of Taglit what community means to them. Their response was: “Community means family.” “Community is awesome because you have a lot friends and everyone knows you.” They are absolutely correct; being a part of The J family is awesome!
