Senior HelpLine

The HelpLine, often a person’s first contact with JCA, starts a relationship leading the caller to housing, funding, transportation, employment, or volunteer opportunities. HelpLine staff connect people with referrals to JCA programs or other community resources that are responsive to their needs, values, and preferences. Your gift gives people answers and connects them with essential services.
