After many years of involvement as a JFS Board Member, Nadja Kauder reflects on the ways that the agency’s Balboa Avenue Older Adult Center has become a source of support for her and her husband, Manny, now living with Alzheimer’s.
In partnership with Alzheimer’s San Diego, we’ve developed a comprehensive support network for individuals and families impacted by Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias (ADRD).
Out & About brings together San Diegans with early stage Alzheimer’s and dementia for weekly adventures to interesting places across San Diego.
At JFS, we’re committed to helping older adults lead safe, healthy, self-determined lives. Learn about our services, and the many ways we support aging well.
