Our mission is to promote, establish and preserve sustainable communities for healthy aging that benefit individuals of all ages and their families.
Aging services play a vital role in enhancing the quality of life for people as they age and creating healthier communities. By offering a wide range of innovative programs and services for those on the aging journey, JABA empowers greater independence, promotes healthy aging, fosters a sense of dignity and fulfillment for all, and celebrates the contributions that seniors invest in our communities.
