Live
At JABA, our mission is to ensure that individuals and families live better. We believe that living as part of a community promotes healthy aging, so all JABA owned and run living options promote a sense of community. Whether you are seeking independent living or living with assistance, JABA continues to establish and preserve affordable living communities that increase options for living better.
Enjoy
Living as an elder should be an enjoyable part of your life. Why not enjoy yourself as part of a community that learns, plays and works together? At JABA, we have designed our Community Centers and our Adult Care Centers to promote fun and fellowship.
Support
JABA is all about lending support to seniors in need of assistance. Whether that includes basic information, case management, insurance counseling, home delivered meals — or any of the many other available services — we want you to think of JABA as a source of support for you or your loved ones. Most of our support is offered as a gift to those who cannot pay. See individual programs for more details.
Give
JABA is able to do all that it does because of generous volunteers and donors. We value contributions of time as well as dollars and promise to put your talents and your donations to very good use.
In the past five years, government funding has diminished. Luckily, individual and corporate contributions have begun to rise. Your assistance is greatly appreciated and needed.
Learn
What’s good for us as we age is good for our entire community — from planning for neighborhood growth, to promoting local foods and collaborating for the best use of resources. This is the philosophy behind JABA’s mission, “to promote, establish and preserve sustainable communities for healthy aging that benefit individuals and families of all ages.”

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
NELSON CENTER HOSTS SECOND MYSTERY DINNER
Following a sold-out performance last fall, Staunton-based theater group returns to Nelson Community Center with all new dinner-theater murder mystery, One Life to Lose.
Who: JABA’s Nelson Community Center
What: One Life to Lose
Something’s not right at the Hollywood bash celebrating the long-running soap opera “Baronets’ Landing” and murder hits the small screen when the show’s new star dies in the middle of the banquet hall. Who wanted the tabloid headlines enough to kill? Could the producer have been working on a new angle? Did one of the costars want to hog the limelight? Did the assistant have a hand in it?
Join JABA’s Nelson Community Center for dinner then discover “who done it” with a little murder for dessert.
One Life to Lose is written by Christina Scott Sayer Grey, and produced by Leet Shakes/Golden Duck Productions.
Where: Nelson Community Center, 8445 Thomas Nelson Hwy, Lovingston, VA 22949
When: Saturday, May 21, dinner begins at 5:00PM, show at 6:30PM
Why: The Nelson Center’s Murder Mystery Dinner in September SOLD OUT and those attending asked for more. To accommodate demand, JABA’s Nelson Center is hosting this new production. The event is a fundraiser for the Nelson Community Center. Proceeds support the Nelson Center seniors’ activities fund.
How: Tickets are $25.00 each and include dinner and show.
To purchase tickets call (434) 263-7155 or (434) 263-5805.
