JCA -- the Jewish Council for the Aging of Greater Washington -- represents something different to each and every man and woman we proudly serve. To the isolated senior with no means of getting around town, we are the smiling ElderBus driver who cheerfully helps with canes, walkers and wheelchairs and even carries packages with a smile. To the concerned family member suddenly faced with overwhelming health or home care issues, we are the confident voice of an information specialist who understands precisely the services needed to care for a beloved parent or spouse and can access our unique, comprehensive database to find needed resources close to home. For the senior who is frail or suffering from Alzheimer’s disease or other challenges, we are a safe and caring place that provides dignified assistance at adult day centers that are second to none. To the older jobseeker, we are a friend, advocate, teacher and guide.
JCA is all of this and so much more! We are different faces in various places, but united in our mission of helping local seniors experience the positive side of aging.
We help all seniors thrive! Highlight the Services tab above to learn more or visit us at www.AccessJCA.org.
