JCA helps older adults remain in life’s mainstream for as long and as independently as possible with a range of support, solutions, and opportunities including reliable referrals and information through the Senior HelpLine and State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP); safe, affordable local transportation; employment programs for people age 50+; the Kensington Clubs adult day programs for people with early-stage memory loss; and the Heyman Interages Center that connects seniors with K–12 students. Together, we are improving the lives of our aging friends and neighbors.
