JASAChat
JASAChat connects volunteers (ages 18+) with older adults for a weekly chat to reduce social isolation and increase feelings of connectedness. True, long lasting friendships have formed through the program.
JASANextGen
JASANextGen is a volunteer advocacy program led by the next generation to educate and advocate on issues relating to older adults. JASANextGenners join monthly meetings to learn about a range of topics from food insecurity to elder abuse, help raise critical funds for our annual JASAEats campaign, take lead in volunteer projects, and participate in mini-internships.
JASANextGen Teens (ages 12-17) have the opportunity to hone their leadership skills and learn more about different career fields while JASANextGen Young Adults (ages 18-22) focus on career development and networking.
JASANextGen Junior
JASANextGen Junior is an intergenerational volunteer program for third through fifth grade students. NextGen Junior engages kids in intergenerational virtual game nights with JASA seniors helping to build meaningful relationships with the seniors we serve.
